CVSS 3.1
7.0 highCVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:HCVE-2026-58093
High (7.0) in freebsd freebsd. EPSS 0.10% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
The TIOCSCTTY ioctl handler drops the tty lock in order to acquire the process tree lock. After reacquiring the tty lock, the handler did not revalidate the state of the terminal, and could proceed to link a terminal that was concurrently being destroyed to the calling process' session.
An unprivileged local user can exploit this race condition to escalate privileges.
