Automotive Grade Linux (AGL) Multiple Vulnerabilities (CVE-2026-37525/37526/37530/37531/37532/42485)

Automotive Grade Linux (AGL) — Multiple Vulnerabilities

Vendor: Automotive Grade Linux (AGL), Linux Foundation Affected: agl-service-can-low-level ≤ 17.1.12, app-framework-binder (afb-daemon) ≤ v19.90.0, app-framework-main ≤ 17.1.12 Reporter: Feng Ning, Innora Security Research (feng@innora.ai) Disclosure: 2026-04-30

CVE Component Type CWE CVSS
CVE-2026-37525 afb-daemon — supervision socket Privilege Escalation CWE-269 7.8
CVE-2026-37526 afb-daemon — privileged supervisord API Improper Access Control CWE-862 7.8
CVE-2026-37530 agl-service-can-low-level (uds-c) Stack Buffer Overflow CWE-121 9.8
CVE-2026-37531 app-framework-main — widget installer Zip Slip Path Traversal + RCE CWE-22 9.8
CVE-2026-37532 agl-service-can-low-level (isotp-c) Heap Buffer Over-Read CWE-126 7.5
CVE-2026-42485 agl-service-can-low-level (uds-c) Stack Buffer Overflow CWE-121 9.8

CVE-2026-37525 / CVE-2026-37526 — afb-daemon Privilege Escalation

afb-daemon exposes a UNIX supervision socket with no peer UID check. Any local process can connect and invoke privileged supervisord API calls directly — there's nothing gating access based on who's on the other end. Sending crafted supervision messages from a low-privilege process is enough to escalate to afb-daemon privileges.


CVE-2026-37530 / CVE-2026-42485 — uds-c Stack Buffer Overflow

In libs/uds-c/src/uds/uds.c, send_diagnostic_request() copies UDS request payload data into a fixed-size stack buffer. The copy length comes straight from the request structure — no validation against buffer capacity. Feed it a large payload and you get a stack overflow.

CVE-2026-37530 is the agl-service-can-low-level packaging angle, reachable over the network via the CAN service API. CVE-2026-42485 tracks the direct library exposure.


CVE-2026-37531 — Widget Installer Zip Slip → RCE

.wgt packages are ZIP archives. The AGL widget installer in app-framework-main extracts them without sanitizing entry paths, so a crafted widget stuffed with ../ sequences writes files wherever it wants outside the installation directory. Given that installs run in a privileged context, this lands you arbitrary file write and code execution.

Fix: normalize and validate all archive entry paths against the target directory before extraction.


CVE-2026-37532 — isotp-c Heap Buffer Over-Read

ISO-TP multi-frame reassembly in the bundled isotp-c library reads past the end of the receive buffer when consecutive frames carry more data than the buffer's declared capacity. The issue is reachable over the CAN bus or through the AGL CAN service API.
