CVE-2024-44946 — exploitation intelligence Public proof-of-concept exploit is available. EPSS exploitation probability: 0.9%. Severity: HIGH.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: kcm: Serialise kcm_sendmsg() for the same socket. syzkaller reported UAF in kcm_release(). [0] The scenario is 1. Thread A builds a skb with MSG_MORE and sets kcm->seq_skb. 2. Thread A resumes building skb from kcm->seq_skb but is blocked by sk_stream_wait_memory() 3. Thread B calls sendmsg() concurrently, finishes building kcm->seq_skb and puts the skb to the write queue 4. Thread A faces an error and finally frees skb that is already in the write queue 5. kcm_release() does double-free the skb in the write queue When a thread is building a MSG_MORE skb, another thread must not touch it. Let's add a per-sk mutex and serialise kcm_sendmsg().

Prioritize with evidence
Severity is context. Exploitation is intent. Harpia separates theoretical impact from operational urgency, helping teams concentrate remediation capacity where attacker behavior changes the decision.
How Harpia decides 01 Disclosed A vulnerability exists. Severity describes potential impact.
02 PoC / weaponized Exploit code changes feasibility and attacker cost.
03 Exploited in the wild Real-world evidence changes remediation urgency.
04 Decision Immediate · Out of cycle · Scheduled · Defer.
