Details
A vulnerability, which was classified as very critical, was found in Linux Kernel up to 6.6.151/6.12.103/6.18.44/7.1.8. Affected is the function fastrpc_internal_invoke of the component fastrpc. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a race condition vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-362. The product contains a code sequence that can run concurrently with other code, and the code sequence requires temporary, exclusive access to a shared resource, but a timing window exists in which the shared resource can be modified by another code sequence that is operating concurrently. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: misc: fastrpc: take fl->lock when moving mmaps on interrupted invoke When an invoke is interrupted by a signal, wait_for_completion_interruptible() returns -ERESTARTSYS and fastrpc_internal_invoke() moves every buffer from fl->mmaps onto cctx->invoke_interrupted_mmaps. This list_del()/list_add_tail() walk runs without holding fl->lock, the lock that serialises fl->mmaps in fastrpc_req_mmap() and fastrpc_req_munmap() everywhere else. Take fl->lock around the move, matching every other fl->mmaps accessor.
The advisory is shared for download at git.kernel.org. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2026-74646 since 08/15/2026. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. There are known technical details, but no exploit is available. The current price for an exploit might be approx. USD $0-$5k (estimation calculated on 08/22/2026).
Upgrading to version 6.6.152, 6.12.104, 6.18.45 or 7.1.9 eliminates this vulnerability.
