CVE-2026-89750CVE-2026-89750

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tracing/user_events: Clear copied tracing state before fork duplication dup_task_struct() copies user_event_mm from the parent into the child, without grabbing a reference to it. user_event_mm_dup() should replace it, but it leaves that copied pointer unmodified if user_event_mm_alloc() fails. When the child exits, user_event_mm_remove() decrements a reference the child never owned, which ultimately frees user_event_mm, while the parent still as a stale pointer to it. This creates a UAF, which KASAN reports as: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in current_user_event_mm+0x51/0x1d0 Write of size 4 at addr ffff888005010d30 by task init/44 Call Trace: <TASK> kasan_report+0xce/0x100 kasan_check_range+0x10f/0x1e0 current_user_event_mm+0x51/0x1d0 user_events_ioctl+0x82e/0x15c0 __x64_sys_ioctl+0x139/0x1c0 do_syscall_64+0xce/0x450 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7
