Copy Fail and DirtyFrag: Linux Page Cache Bugs in the Wild
Copy Fail, Copy Fail 2, and DirtyFrag are Linux kernel privilege escalation bugs that abuse page-cache corruption through legitimate kernel interfaces to reach root, with Copy Fail already reported as exploited in the wild and added to CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. Elastic Security Labs recommends behavior-based detection and mitigation measures such as kernel patching, module blocking, dropping the page cache, and restricting unprivileged user namespaces. #CopyFail #CopyFail2 #DirtyFrag #CISA
