- In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: apparmor: fix unconfined user
namespace restriction forced stack If a task is already confined by a stack the unprivileged transition
restriction on unconfined is not correctly, applied. This results in an escape if two transitions through
an unconfined profile can be executed. Fix this by pushing the check into the per profile label build. The
check will always be done against unconfined and result in a stack of just the unconfined component when
necessary. (CVE-2026-90231)
