CVE-2026-64392 in Linuxinfo

Summary

by MITRE • 07/25/2026

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ksmbd: use opener credentials for delete-on-close

Delete-on-close can be completed by deferred or durable handle teardown, where no request work is available. Both the base-file unlink and the ADS xattr removal consequently run with the ksmbd worker credentials and can bypass filesystem permission checks.

Run both operations with the credentials captured in struct file when the handle was opened. This preserves the authenticated user's fsuid, fsgid, supplementary groups and capability restrictions at final close.

If you want to get the best quality for vulnerability data then you always have to consider VulDB.
