Security Advisory: Zapscape (CVE-2026-64561) KVM guest escape and local root: mitigation and kernel update for CloudLinux

  • security
    Zapscape (CVE-2026-64561) is a vulnerability in the Linux kernel’s KVM code. It has two attack paths. On an affected host that runs virtual machines, a tenant with root inside their own guest can take root on the host. On affected shared-hosting servers that run no virtual machines at all, an ordinary user or a compromised website can create a throwaway guest of their own and attack the host kernel from inside it.
  • resolution
    Mitigation before the KernelCare update is released:
    If your server runs no virtual machines

    Most shared-hosting servers are in this group. Unload the KVM modules to close both attack paths without requiring a reboot.

    sudo modprobe -r kvm_intel kvm_amd kvm 2>/dev/null
    Block KVM modules from loading

    Block the KVM modules from loading again at boot.

    echo -e 'install kvm_intel /bin/false\ninstall kvm_amd /bin/false' | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/disable-kvm.conf
    Verify KVM is disabled

    Confirm that no KVM modules are loaded and that the KVM device is unavailable.

    lsmod | grep kvm; ls /dev/kvm
    Revert the KVM block

    After installing a patched kernel, remove the block and reload the KVM module, or reboot the server.

    rm -f /etc/modprobe.d/disable-kvm.conf && sudo modprobe kvm_intel
    Check nested virtualization status

    Check the current live value before making changes. Use kvm_intel on Intel-based hosts

    cat /sys/module/kvm_intel/parameters/nested

    Check the current live value before making changes, Use kvm_amd on AMD-based hosts.

    cat /sys/module/kvm_amd/parameters/nested
    Disable nested virtualization

    Use this command on Intel-based hosts.

    echo 'options kvm_intel nested=0' | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/zapscape.conf

    Use this command on AMD-based hosts.

    echo 'options kvm_amd nested=0' | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/zapscape.conf
    Update KernelCare

    If you are using our cPanel or CloudLinux license you have access to KernelCare license for free, To update and get the latest patch, run

    amslicensekc

    Or use this command:

    kcarectl --update
    Check if the Zapscape kernel patch is applied

    Once updated, check whether the Zapscape kernel patch was applied to your kernel.

    kcarectl --patch-info | grep 'CVE-2026-64561'

Security Advisory: OVSwrap (CVE-2026-64531) local root exploit

  • security
    OVSwrap (CVE-2026-64531) is a vulnerability in the Linux kernel’s Open vSwitch action validation that lets any local unprivileged user become root. It is an upstream kernel bug, so it reaches the whole EL9 and EL10 family and several Debian and Ubuntu releases. A working public exploit exists.
  • resolution
    Mitigation before the KernelCare update is released:
    Block the module from loading

    This stops the vulnerable module loading at boot on servers that do not need it.

    echo 'install openvswitch /bin/false' > /etc/modprobe.d/ovswrap.conf
    Unload openvswitch if already loaded

    If the module is already loaded on a server that does not use it, unload it as well.

    lsmod | grep -E '^openvswitch' && modprobe -r openvswitch
    Update KernelCare

    If you are using our cPanel or CloudLinux license you have access to KernelCare license for free, To update and get the latest patch, run

    amslicensekc

    Or use this command:

    kcarectl --update
    Check if kernel patched

    Once updated, you can check whether the OVSwrap kernel patch was applied to your kernel

    kcarectl --patch-info | grep 'CVE-2026-64531'
