CVE-2026-74513CVE-2026-74513

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dibs: fix use-after-free of dmb_node in loopback attach/detach/unregister dibs_lo_attach_dmb(), dibs_lo_detach_dmb() and dibs_lo_unregister_dmb() look up the dmb_node under dmb_ht_lock, drop the lock and only then operate on the node's refcount. Nothing keeps the node alive across that window: __dibs_lo_unregister_dmb() removes the node from the hash table under the write lock and immediately frees it. A concurrent final put can therefore free the node between the lookup and the refcount operation: CPU0 (attach) CPU1 (owner unregisters) read_lock_bh(&dmb_ht_lock) find dmb_node (refcnt == 1) read_unlock_bh(&dmb_ht_lock) refcount_dec_and_test() 1 -> 0 write_lock_bh(&dmb_ht_lock) hash_del(&dmb_node->list) write_unlock_bh(&dmb_ht_lock)
