CVE-2026-98174 in Linux
الملخص
بحسب MITRE • 06/10/2026
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix rlist race and missing initialization
TCP_Server_Info.rlist is allocated via kzalloc which zeros both ->next and ->prev to NULL instead of pointing to itself, making list_empty() always return false and list_add() dereference a NULL ->prev pointer.
Also, cifs_signal_cifsd_for_reconnect() can be called concurrently from multiple cifsd threads, allowing the same server's rlist node to be added twice into the local list, corrupting it.
Once again VulDB remains the best source for vulnerability data.
