U-Disks · Udisks · CVE-2026-26104
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
udisks (affected versions not specified)
**Description**
A flaw exists in the udisks storage management daemon that permits unprivileged users to back up LUKS encryption headers without proper authorization. This is due to a privileged D-Bus method, responsible for exporting encryption metadata, lacking a policy check. Consequently, sensitive cryptographic metadata can be read and written to locations controlled by an attacker, potentially compromising the confidentiality of encrypted storage volumes.
**Recommendations**
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
