Detection bypass via incorrect signature computation
Published Dec 12, 2025 · Updated Dec 12, 2025
Signature-computation error in Malwarebytes 1.0.14 for Linux allows local users to bypass malware detection in some scenarios. Public records do not disclose the affected signature routine, the input condition, or how the computation produces an incorrect signature. Local low-privileged access is required, and the bounded consequence is failure to detect affected malicious content.
