CVE-2026-97594——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
landlock: Fix use-after-free of the source's parent directory
current_check_refer_path() reads old_dentry->d_parent without holding a
reference nor a lock on it, and then dereferences it in
collect_domain_accesses() and in the audit record.
A reference on a child does not pin its parent: __d_move() reassigns
dentry->d_parent and drops the reference the child held on its former
parent. hook_path_rename() is not affected because the rename path
calls lock_rename() before the hook, so the source cannot be reparented
under it. hook_path_link() has no such protection: filename_linkat()
holds a reference on the source dentry but neither locks nor references
its parent, so a concurrent rename(2) can reparent the source while
security_path_link() runs, and the former parent can then be removed and
freed while the hook walks it.
A process can trigger this after entering a Landlock domain that handles
at least one filesystem access right. The process can then race a
linkat(2) loop against rename(2) and rmdir(2):

———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/s390: Fix NULL dereference in iova_to_phys() with ZPCI_TABLE_TYPE_RFX
When using a 5-level translation table via ZPCI_TABLE_TYPE_RFX
get_rso_from_iova() returns NULL when the region-first entry is invalid.
Yet in get_rto_from_iova() the region-second origin rso is not checked
to be non-NULL before accessing rso[rsx] leading to a NULL pointer
dereference instead of a NULL return when iova_to_phys() is called on
a unmapped IOVA. Fix this by adding the missing NULL check.6hCVE-2026-97592——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/crypto: Fix missing scrub of temp buffers with AES ctr and gcm algorithm
In function ctr_aes_crypt() there is a buffer used to process
remaining bytes < AES_BLOCK_SIZE. This buffer was not scrubbed and
thus could lead to expose of unwanted data. When the buffer is used
explicitly scrub it at the end of the code block to avoid exposure of
maybe sensitive data.
In a similar way the function gcm_aes_crypt() hat an error path where
the CPACF param block was not scrubbed. Instead of return early now
these error paths go to end of function where explicit scrubbing is
done. Similar with the buffers which are part of the gcm_sg_walk
structs from the variables gw_in and gw_out.6hCVE-2026-97591——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/crypto: Fix handling of EBUSY in PHMAC when req is pushed to crypto engine
When a request is transferred to the engine via
crypto_transfer_hash_request_to_engine() there are two return codes
signaling a successful transfer: EINPROGRESS and EBUSY. However the
correct handling of EBUSY was missing and has been added as a return
code indicating a successful transfer to the crypto engine.6hCVE-2026-97590——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/crypto: Fix missing scrub of temp buffers with PAES algorithm
In function ctr_paes_do_crypt() there is a buffer used to process
remaining bytes < AES_BLOCK_SIZE. This buffer was not scrubbed and
thus could lead to expose of unwanted data. Rework the code to
explicitly scrub the buffer at the end of the function to avoid
exposure of maybe sensitive data.
In function __xts_2keys_prep_param() change the existing scrub to
clean the whole param block instead of just the key field.6hCVE-2026-97589——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/crypto: Fix wrong return code to engine in asynch callbacks
When crypto_finalize_hash_request() or
crypto_finalize_skcipher_request() explicitly completes a request, the
do_one_request callback must return 0 to indicate successful
handling. Returning a negative error code causes the crypto engine to
assume the driver failed to take ownership and triggers a second
completion via crypto_request_complete(), resulting in a double
completion. This pattern occurs in paes_s390.c 4 times and once in
phmac_s390.c.
Fixed in phmac_do_one_request() and all four paes do_one_request
callbacks (ecb, cbc, ctr, xts) by returning 0 after explicit
finalization instead of propagating the error code.6hCVE-2026-97588——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/crypto: Map EBUSY to EIO when key conversion fails repeatedly
When hardware persistently returns -EBUSY after exhausting retries,
the error propagates to crypto_finalize_*_request(). The crypto API's
completion wrapper treats -EBUSY as a queueing status and swallows it,
preventing the completion callback from firing. This causes callers
using crypto_wait_req() to block indefinitely.
Translate persistent -EBUSY to -EIO after retry exhaustion to ensure
proper error propagation and callback invocation.6hCVE-2026-97587——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf: RISC-V: store available counter mask as bitmap
The available-counter mask was a single unsigned long, but iteration
uses RISCV_MAX_COUNTERS, which is 64. On RV32 that reads past the object.
Filling with an unsigned-long bit at index 32 and above is also wrong.
Use DECLARE_BITMAP and set_bit/bitmap helpers. Walk each bitmap word
into CFG_MATCH when checking events, when allocating an index, and when
stopping all counters. Set the counter base to i times BITS_PER_LONG.
Share the CFG_MATCH ecall through a small helper so the 32-bit argument
split is not duplicated. On qemu-system-riscv32 the probe bitmap has bits
above XLEN set, so the first word alone is not enough.

afs: Fix double-unmap of directory block
Fix afs_edit_dir_remove() to use a cleanup function to unmap the block
pointed to by afs_dir_iter::block if it's left pointing to something rather
than manually kunmapping the blocks. Manually kunmapping without clearing
iter.blocks can result in a double-kunmap if afs_dir_find_block() is called

first in the hash chain).6hCVE-2026-97584——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
afs: Fix incorrect free in candidate cleanup in afs_lookup_server()
Fix afs_lookup_server() to not free an existing server's endpoint state
when cleaning up a candidate server. The candidate record doesn't have an
endpoint state yet at this point, so the free for that can just be removed.6hCVE-2026-97583——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
afs: Clear stale peer app data after address list changes
afs_fs_probe_fileserver() fetches the current endpoint state under
server->fs_lock, but leaves old_alist as NULL. Consequently,
afs_set_peer_appdata() treats every address list replacement as initial
setup and only binds the new peers; it never unbinds peers removed from
the old list.
An address refresh can therefore proceed as follows. CPU 0 replaces
server S's list and drops Pold without clearing Pold->app_data. The
server destroyer then clears only S's current peers and lets S reach its
RCU callback. After the callback frees S, CPU 1 handles a callback
through an RxRPC connection that still pins Pold, reads Pold->app_data,
and calls afs_use_server() on the freed object.

———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (gpio-fan) Fix use-after-free in alarm work
fan_alarm_irq_handler() queues fan_data->alarm_work, but nothing
cancels it. fan_alarm_notify() dereferences fan_data and its hwmon
device. On unbind, devres frees the interrupt, which only waits for
the handler itself, and then releases the hwmon device and fan_data,
so a pending fan_alarm_notify() can run after those frees.
Replace INIT_WORK() with devm_work_autocancel(), registered before
devm_request_irq(). The devres cleanup then frees the interrupt
first, so no new work can be queued, and cancels the work while
fan_data and the hwmon device are still alive.

DMA buffer, sized for a grid equal to the PPS uAPI array capacity. Use the
bounded v4l2_hevc_pps_num_tile_columns() / v4l2_hevc_pps_num_tile_rows()
helpers so the loops stay inside the buffer.6hCVE-2026-97580——

compute_tiles_uniform() and compute_tiles_non_uniform() loop over
num_tile_columns_minus1 + 1 / num_tile_rows_minus1 + 1 entries, and
assemble_hw_pps() writes one COLUMN_WIDTH / ROW_HEIGHT register per tile
and indexes priv_tbl->param_set[] by pic_parameter_set_id, all taken from
the untrusted PPS. Use the bounded v4l2_hevc_pps_num_tile_columns() /
v4l2_hevc_pps_num_tile_rows() helpers for the tile loops, and bail out of
assemble_hw_pps() before indexing priv_tbl->param_set[] with an
out-of-range pic_parameter_set_id, so the writes stay within the hardware
tables.6hCVE-2026-97579——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: mediatek: vcodec: bound AV1 tile-start copy to the array capacity
vdec_av1_slice_setup_tile() copies tile_cols + 1 / tile_rows + 1 entries
into mi_col_starts[] / mi_row_starts[] from the bitstream tile_info. Bound
the copy to the array capacity.6hCVE-2026-97578——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: verisilicon: rockchip: guard VPU981 AV1 divisor and tile buffer
rockchip_vpu981_av1_dec_set_tile_info() divides context_update_tile_id by
tile_info->tile_cols and writes one descriptor per tile into the tile_info
DMA buffer, which holds AV1_MAX_TILES entries; tile_cols and tile_rows
come from the bitstream. Guard the division against a zero tile_cols by
initialising the context-update values to zero and computing them only
when tile_cols is non-zero, and stop the descriptor writes once the
tile_info buffer is full. The tile geometry written to the hardware
registers is left unmodified; the per-dimension and total tile bounds are
enforced by the control validation.6hCVE-2026-97577——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: verisilicon: rockchip: reject AV1 frames exceeding the tile capacity
rockchip_vpu981_av1_dec_set_tile_info() indexes the tile group entry
array by tile1 * tile_cols + tile0, reading up to tile_cols * tile_rows
entries, lays out one descriptor per tile in the AV1_MAX_TILES tile_info
buffer, and programs the real tile_cols / tile_rows into the hardware.
The tile group entry control is a dynamic array sized to the number of
entries userspace submitted, independent of tile_cols / tile_rows, so a
frame that claims more tiles than entries reads past the array. A frame
that claims more than AV1_MAX_TILES tiles also leaves the hardware
programmed for more tiles than the descriptor buffer holds.
Reject both in prepare_run(): tile_cols * tile_rows must not exceed the
submitted entry count or AV1_MAX_TILES. The entry count is read via
v4l2_ctrl_find() (ctrl->elems). This mirrors the bound the mediatek AV1
decoder already enforces.6hCVE-2026-97576——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: v4l2-ctrls: validate HEVC tile counts
The stateless HEVC decoders read num_tile_columns_minus1 + 1 entries from
column_width_minus1[] and num_tile_rows_minus1 + 1 from row_height_minus1[]
and use them as tile-loop bounds, but std_validate_compound() does not
bound these u8 counts. Reject a V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_HEVC_PPS with tiling
enabled whose tile counts exceed the uAPI array capacity, mirroring the
existing compound-control range checks.6hCVE-2026-97575——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: v4l2-ctrls: validate AV1 tile counts
The stateless AV1 decoders use tile_info.tile_cols and tile_rows as loop
bounds and as indices into the mi_*_starts[] and *_in_sbs_minus_1[]
arrays, as the divisor for context_update_tile_id, and their product
bounds the per-tile descriptor buffers, but std_validate_compound() does
not bound these u8 fields. Reject a V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_AV1_FRAME whose
tile_cols or tile_rows exceeds V4L2_AV1_MAX_TILE_COLS / _ROWS, or whose
product exceeds V4L2_AV1_MAX_TILE_COUNT. A zero tile count is left to the
consuming driver so the zero-initialised control that existing userspace
submits is still accepted.6hCVE-2026-97574——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnxt_en: Don't free the live ring's TPA state on queue restart failure
bnxt_queue_mem_alloc() shallow copies the live RX ring into the clone:
memcpy(clone, rxr, sizeof(*rxr));
the code currently clears pointers that the clone owns (such as
rx_agg_bmap), but rx_tpa and rx_tpa_idx_map are left pointing at memory
of the live ring that was cloned.
If an allocation failure happens later and the err_free_tpa_info label
is taken, the live ring's memory can be freed while still in use.
Fix this by initializing the clone's pointers to NULL to prevent live
ring state from being freed inadvertently.6hCVE-2026-97573——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnxt_en: Handle buffer allocation failure in bnxt_rx_ring_reset()
bnxt_rx_ring_reset() frees the ring buffers and then reallocates them,
ignoring the result.
bnxt_alloc_one_rx_ring() can fail in bnxt_alloc_one_tpa_info_data(), which
returns -ENOMEM on the first failed allocation and leaves the remaining
rxr->rx_tpa[] entries zeroed.
The error isn't propagated up, so the loop in bnxt_rx_ring_reset
continues and at the end the code re-enables TPA with partially
unallocated rx_tpa array.
This means that when the agg_id from hardware is mapped to a SW index in
rxr->rx_tpa[], an uninitialized slot can be chosen which would hand a
zero DMA address to the device.
Fix this by falling back to a global reset, which is what the existing
code already does when other functions fail, but unlike the other
failure cases this particular failure has to return because TPA can't
be re-enabled since the allocation failed.6hCVE-2026-97572——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnxt_en: Propagate RX ring init failures in bnxt_init_nic()
bnxt_init_rx_rings() returns an error when bnxt_alloc_one_rx_ring()
fails, but bnxt_init_nic() discards that return value and calls
bnxt_init_chip(), which enables TPA.
If an allocation fails, this could leave rxr->rx_tpa[] partially zeroed
and TPA would be enabled over an array with zeroed entries. This would
lead to a zeroed DMA address being handed out if the agg_idx is
translated to a SW index at a zeroed entry.
Fix this by propagating the error out of bnxt_init_nic(). Both callers
already check its return value and unwind with bnxt_free_skbs() and
bnxt_free_mem(), which tolerate a partially initialized RX ring.6hCVE-2026-97571——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnxt_en: Propagate TPA buffer allocation failures in bnxt_queue_mem_alloc()
bnxt_alloc_one_tpa_info_data() returns -ENOMEM as soon as one allocation
fails. This leaves the remaining rxr->rx_tpa[] entries zeroed.
bnxt_queue_mem_alloc() discards that return value, so the partially
initialized ring is installed by bnxt_queue_start().
Since the agg_id is picked by the hardware and bnxt_alloc_agg_idx maps
it to a SW index in rxr->rx_tpa[], it is possible that an uninitialized
slot can be chosen which would hand a zero DMA address to the device.
Fix this by checking the return value of bnxt_alloc_one_tpa_info_data
and unwinding, freeing the ring buffers.6hCVE-2026-97570——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnxt_en: Bound SW TPA IDs to prevent crashes
FW supports up to 1024 concurrent TPAs, so the FW TPA ID is in the range
0..1023 (see commit ec4d8e7cf024 ("bnxt_en: Add TPA ID mapping logic for
57500 chips.")). bnxt_alloc_agg_idx is intended to wrap the FW ID down to a
software ID which is used to index rxr->rx_tpa, and to generate a mapping
between FW IDs and the wrapped software ID.
On a 57608 with firmware version 233, the firmware advertises 32
concurrent TPAs. As of the commit under fixes, bp->max_tpa on this NIC
is set to 32.
If the software ID from bnxt_alloc_agg_idx is above 31, this results in
an invalid address being loaded on this line:
tpa_info = &rxr->rx_tpa[agg_id];
because rx_tpa is allocated with only bp->max_tpa (32) entries. Writes
to tpa_info later in the code are out of bounds.
This bug results in a crash at boot:

This stack trace is from a crash triggered when an out of bounds rx_tpa

particular crash.
Fix this by allocating rx_tpa with bp->max_tpa rounded up to the next
power of 2 (bp->max_tpa_roundup_size) entries and masking the FW TPA ID
with that size, so the wrapped ID can never index past the end of the
array.6hCVE-2026-97569——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnxt_en: Prevent queue stop with deferred completions
When the driver receives a burst of packets, it can mark a BD with the
NO_CMPL bit to defer completions. The expectation is that the last
packet in the ring will have this bit unset and the completion generated
by that packet will cleanup that packet and the ones preceding it. This
helps to reduce the number of completions fired.
The suppressed completions are controlled by the driver and the number
of packets with suppressed completions scales with the size of the ring.
SW USO packets, on the other hand, have an upper bound on the maximum
number of BDs which can be consumed which does not scale with the ring
size.
So, for small rings it is possible that: a burst of packets is handed to
the driver, the driver defers completions for all of the packets because
the number of free descriptors stays above the threshold in the driver.
Then, a USO packet arrives, but the number of BDs available is not
enough and the USO code exits early.
In this case, you end up in a state where the ring is full of packets
with their completions suppressed, which can cause the queue to stop and
never be restarted.
Assuming default CONFIG_MAX_SKB_FRAGS, this is only possible for small
rings (<= 457 descriptors, below the driver default value) when
a burst of packets fills the ring, followed by a large USO packet that
can't fit. For larger rings, the delta between the completion
suppression threshold and the BDs required for SW USO is large enough
that completions will fire and this case is unreachable.
This issue was pointed out by Sashiko and while it seems fairly unlikely
given that the queue size must be small to trigger this, it is indeed
possible.
Fix this by tracking the last BD which deferred completions and
centralizing the logic for deciding when to ring the doorbell. The NO_CMPL
bit is now cleared in bnxt_txr_db_kick(), so every doorbell site is
covered, including the SW USO early exit. This guarantees the ring always
ends in a BD which generates a completion to clean it and wake the queue.6hCVE-2026-97568——

mptcp: syncookies: remember the request backup flag
Instead of using an uninitialised bit when copying the info in

———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: pm: kernel: drop pending ADD_ADDR when removing ID0
The in-kernel MPTCP path manager can leave a stale ADD_ADDR announcement
entry alive when removing the id 0 endpoint. This happens because the id 0
removal path does not tear down pending announcements, unlike the non-zero
id path.
When the PM later reselects id 0 after adding another signal endpoint, it
finds the stale anno_list entry and hits WARN_ON_ONCE(mptcp_pm_is_kernel())
in mptcp_pm_announced_alloc().
Root cause: asymmetry between removal paths.
- Non-zero id path: mptcp_nl_remove_subflow_and_signal_addr() calls
mptcp_pm_remove_announced() to clean up.
- Id 0 path: mptcp_nl_remove_id_zero_address() skips cleanup entirely.
Fix by making the id 0 path symmetric: call mptcp_pm_announced_remove()
and decrement add_addr_signaled before queuing the RM_ADDR.
Subtle detail: signal endpoints are stored in anno_list with port 0, but
msk_local carries the connection's local port. In other words, entries
linked to ID0 paths should have port == 0. A follow-up patch will ensure
that. mptcp_pm_announced_remove() uses use_port=true for comparison. So
clear the port before the lookup.6hCVE-2026-97565——

than the READ_RSP header, so that parsing the header itself reads past

———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: reject userspace cifs.idmap descriptions
cifs.idmap key descriptions carry authority-bearing fields (owner and
group SIDs and uid/gid values in "os:"/"gs:"/"oi:"/"gi:" form) that the
cifs.idmap upcall helper treats as kernel-originating inputs. Unlike
its sibling cifs.spnego, the cifs.idmap key type has no vet_description
hook, so userspace can create keys of this type through
request_key(2)/add_key(2) and supply those fields without CIFS origin.
A request_key(2) call with a non-NULL callout then drives a root
usermodehelper upcall (/sbin/request-key -> cifs.idmap) that consumes
the unvetted description in root context.
Only accept cifs.idmap descriptions while CIFS is using its private
root_cred to request the key. id_to_sid()/sid_to_id() already run
under override_creds(root_cred), so the kernel-originated path is
unaffected.
This mirrors commit 3da1fdf4efbc ("smb: client: reject userspace
cifs.spnego descriptions"), which applied the same restriction to
cifs.spnego.6hCVE-2026-97563——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: reject out-of-bounds DataOffset in CIFSSMBRead()
The SMB1 synchronous read helper CIFSSMBRead() validates the server's
DataLength against CIFSMaxBufSize and the caller's count, but never
validates DataOffset. The copy source is formed as
&pSMBr->hdr.Protocol + le16_to_cpu(pSMBr->DataOffset)
and memcpy()'d for DataLength bytes with no check that the
[DataOffset, DataOffset + DataLength) range lies within the response
actually received from the server.
A malicious or compromised SMB1 server can return a response carrying
an in-range DataLength and a large DataOffset, driving the source
pointer past the end of the response buffer. The memcpy() then copies
adjacent kernel heap into the caller's read buffer (information
disclosure), or reads unmapped memory and oopses (denial of service).
SMB1 is not negotiated by default; reaching this code requires an
explicit vers=1.0 mount.
Both DataOffset and the received response length recorded in
rsp_iov.iov_len are relative to the start of the SMB header, so reject
the response unless DataOffset + DataLength fits within that length,
using overflow-safe arithmetic, before forming the source pointer.
The response length has been validated by the previous patch, so the
DataOffset and DataLength fields can be read safely here.
While here, make data_length unsigned. It holds a length derived from
unsigned on-the-wire fields and is only ever compared against unsigned
quantities; print it with %u accordingly, and add __func__ to the
cifs_dbg() calls in this function.6hCVE-2026-97562——
———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

———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: honor forceuid/forcegid when mapping SIDs to uid/gid
When the administrator mounts with forceuid or forcegid (uid=/gid=
mount options), they expect all files to appear owned by the specified
user/group. However, several code paths unconditionally called
sid_to_id() to overwrite cf_uid/cf_gid with server-provided values,
ignoring the administrator's explicit override:
- smb311_posix_info_to_fattr() (stat via POSIX extensions)
- cifs_posix_to_fattr() (readdir via POSIX extensions)
- parse_sec_desc() (CIFS ACL ownership mapping)
This allowed an untrusted server to dictate local file ownership even
when the mount was configured to force specific uid/gid values.
Fix all three call sites to check CIFS_MOUNT_OVERR_UID and
CIFS_MOUNT_OVERR_GID before calling sid_to_id(), following the
same pattern already used by cifs_unix_basic_to_fattr() for unix
extensions.6hCVE-2026-97560——

———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fail DACL rewrite when the new DACL exceeds 64K
replace_sids_and_copy_aces() and set_chmod_dacl() accumulate the size of
the DACL they build in a u16. That accumulator can wrap.
validate_dacl() caps num_aces at (dacl_size - sizeof(struct smb_acl)) /
20, i.e. 3276 for a maximally sized DACL, while each rewritten ACE can
grow to sizeof(struct smb_ace) (76 bytes) once its SID is replaced with
one carrying SID_MAX_SUB_AUTHORITIES sub-authorities. The worst case is
therefore sizeof(struct smb_acl) + 3276 * 76 = 248984 bytes, far beyond
what a u16 can hold. A wraparound is reached with 863 ACEs.
After the wraparound, ndacl_ptr->size becomes meaningless and the offset
will point anywhere in the ACE array. As a result, we will see
corruption of the DACL, which then gets sent to the server. This is not
an out-of-bounds write as the allocation now covers the worst-case
expansion, so writes will always go into the buffer.
Adjust the code to use a u32 internally and return -EOVERFLOW in the
overflow case. The operation must be refused, because a DACL can only
hold 2^16-1 bytes on the wire and larger DACLs cannot be represented.
set_chmod_dacl() carries the same pattern and is fixed the same way. It
only wraps once the source DACL comes within roughly 380 bytes of the
64K ceiling, but the failure mode is identical.6hCVE-2026-97558——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix cifsFileInfo reference leak in deferred close
When cifs_close() defers a close, it hands the cifsFileInfo reference
of the closing struct file to the queued work. Each execution of
smb2_deferred_work_close() drops one such reference.
deferred_close_scheduled can be false while the work is pending: the
workqueue clears PENDING when the callback starts to run, before the
callback clears the flag under deferred_lock. A close in that
interval requeues the running work, and the callback then clears the
flag, leaving the requeued work pending with the flag down. A later
cifs_open() can reuse the handle and its cifs_close() reaches the
same branch: queue_delayed_work() fails because the work is still
pending, but cifs_close() returns without dropping the closing file's
reference. The cifsFileInfo count stays pinned and its tlink, dentry
and server handle are leaked.
Check the return value and hand off the reference only when work was
actually queued. Otherwise, use the shared _cifsFileInfo_put(), like
the mod_delayed_work() branch above: the pending execution already
owns its reference.
This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.6hCVE-2026-97557——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: avoid leaking refcount in cifs_queue_oplock_break()
cifs_queue_oplock_break() unconditionally takes a reference on the
target file before queueing cifs_oplock_break(). Only that work item
decreases the reference counter again.
If another oplock break arrives while that work is still queued,
queue_work() will return false and not queue this second work item. As a
result, we will never reach the point to drop the file reference again
and are leaking this reference. This can be triggered when interacting
with a slow-responding server.
As a result, later unmount operations for this file system will fail with
BUG: Dentry ... still in use (1) [unmount of cifs cifs]
VFS: Busy inodes after unmount of cifs (cifs)
kernel BUG at fs/super.c:777!
Fix this by only incrementing the reference count if the work has been
queued successfully. Taking it after queue_work() is safe because all
three callers hold tcon->open_file_lock across the call and
_cifsFileInfo_put() decrements under that same lock, so a worker that
starts the handler in the window cannot drop the reference before it has
been taken.6hCVE-2026-97556——
———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: avoid leaking refcount when cifs_sb_tlink() fails
cifs_oplock_break() takes over the reference that
cifs_queue_oplock_break() acquired when it queued the work, and drops it
with _cifsFileInfo_put() once the break has been processed.
Only in setups with "-o multiuser", cifs_sb_tlink() may fail, at which
point cifs_oplock_break() returns without putting the file reference,
mirroring the reference leak we already fixed in the companion patch to
cifs_queue_oplock_break().
This would trigger a crash due to busy inodes on the next unmount:
BUG: Dentry ... still in use (1) [unmount of cifs cifs]
VFS: Busy inodes after unmount of cifs (cifs)
Drop the reference on that path as well. Doing so before the out label
mirrors the normal path, which also puts the reference before
cifs_done_oplock_break().

———In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix heap overflow in DACL owner/group rewrite
When id_mode_to_cifs_acl rewrites an existing DACL, it allocates a
buffer sized according to the on-disk DACL length reported by
dacl_ptr->size. However, replace_sids_and_copy_aces may rewrite each
ACE with a new owner/group SID obtained from the cifs.idmap upcall.
Those SIDs can have up to SID_MAX_SUB_AUTHORITIES (15) sub-authorities,
making each ACE up to 76 bytes (sizeof(struct smb_ace)).
If the original DACL contains short SIDs (e.g., 1 sub-authority) while
the replacement SIDs are long, the rewritten ACEs overflow the
allocation.
Fix this by always budgeting for worst-case SID expansion: allocate
sizeof(struct smb_acl) plus num_aces * sizeof(struct smb_ace), which
covers the smb_acl header and room for every ACE at maximum SID size.
This replaces the previous split logic that used dacl_ptr->size for
cifsacl mounts but num_aces * sizeof(struct smb_ace) for mode_from_sid
mounts: both paths can trigger the same rewrite and need the same
headroom.
