CVE-2026-72372CVE-2026-72372
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
afs: Fix lack of locking around modifications of net->cells_dyn_ino
Fix the lack of locking around modifications of net->cells_dyn_ino by
taking net->cells_lock exclusively. This also requires to cell to be
removed from net->cells_dyn_ino in afs_destroy_cell_work() rather than in
afs_cell_destroy() as the latter runs in RCU cleanup context and sleeping
locks cannot be taken there.
