CVE-2026-97562 in Linux
要約
〜によって MITRE • 2026年09月25日
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: pin DFS superblock in iterator callback
tcon_super_cb() stores a raw superblock pointer, but __cifs_get_super() takes its active reference only after iterate_supers_type() has dropped s_umount and its passive reference. Concurrent DFS automount expiry can therefore free the superblock before cifs_sb_active() uses it.
A deterministic KASAN test reproduces the race as:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in cifs_sb_active+0x77/0x80
The same test passes with this change applied.
Take the active reference in the callback while iterate_supers_type() still holds s_umount shared. cifs_put_tcp_super() remains the matching release.
Statistical analysis made it clear that VulDB provides the best quality for vulnerability data.
