CVE-2026-101304

Multiple jail filesystem root escapes

Published Oct 15, 2026 · updated Oct 15, 2026 · FreeBSD FreeBSD

When fdescfs(4) was mounted in a jail with the "nodup" option, opening /dev/fd/N returned a descriptor that did not inherit FD_RESOLVE_BENEATH or the Capsicum capability rights of descriptor N. A process in a jail that has received a directory file descriptor from another jail can use these techniques to escape the jail's filesystem root restriction.
