It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-49281 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux kernel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-49281/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-49281/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-49281","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-49281/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-49281","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2022-49281","GHSA-gw4h-w2h5-pqq7","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2022-49281","UBUNTU-CVE-2022-49281"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Linux kernel CIFS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A bug in the Linux kernel CIFS module causes kernel warnings and potential instability during unmounting in multiuser configurations.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ncifs: fix handlecache and multiuser\n\nIn multiuser each individual user has their own tcon structure for the\nshare and thus their own handle for a cached directory.\nWhen we umount such a share we much make sure to release the pinned down dentry\nfor each such tcon and not just the master tcon.\n\nOtherwise we will get nasty warnings on umount that dentries are still in use:\n[ 3459.590047] BUG: Dentry 00000000115c6f41{i=12000000019d95,n=/}  still in use\\\n (2) [unmount of cifs cifs]\n...\n[ 3459.590492] Call Trace:\n[ 3459.590500]  d_walk+0x61/0x2a0\n[ 3459.590518]  ? shrink_lock_dentry.part.0+0xe0/0xe0\n[ 3459.590526]  shrink_dcache_for_umount+0x49/0x110\n[ 3459.590535]  generic_shutdown_super+0x1a/0x110\n[ 3459.590542]  kill_anon_super+0x14/0x30\n[ 3459.590549]  cifs_kill_sb+0xf5/0x104 [cifs]\n[ 3459.590773]  deactivate_locked_super+0x36/0xa0\n[ 3459.590782]  cleanup_mnt+0x131/0x190\n[ 3459.590789]  task_work_run+0x5c/0x90\n[ 3459.590798]  exit_to_user_mode_loop+0x151/0x160\n[ 3459.590809]  exit_to_user_mode_prepare+0x83/0xd0\n[ 3459.590818]  syscall_exit_to_user_mode+0x12/0x30\n[ 3459.590828]  do_syscall_64+0x48/0x90\n[ 3459.590833]  entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"cifs: fix handlecache and multiuser","id":"CVE-2022-49281","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"null_dereference","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"f2fs: quota: fix loop condition at f2fs_quota_sync()","id":"CVE-2022-49282"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"NFSD: prevent underflow in nfssvc_decode_writeargs()","id":"CVE-2022-49280"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2025-02-26","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Out-of-Bounds Write","id":"CVE-2026-53266","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2026-06-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2013-6282","kev_date_added":"2022-09-15","published":"2013-11-19"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Linux Kernel Heap-Based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2022-0185","kev_date_added":"2024-08-21","published":"2022-02-11"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Linux Kernel Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2013-2094","kev_date_added":"2022-09-15","published":"2013-05-14"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Unspecified","id":"CVE-2026-53362","kev_date_added":"2026-08-27","published":"2026-07-04"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Missing Initialization of a Variable","id":"CVE-2026-46300","kev_date_added":"2026-10-28","published":"2026-05-23"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Race Condition","id":"CVE-2025-39964","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2025-10-13"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-11","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A bug in the Linux kernel CIFS module causes kernel warnings and potential instability during unmounting in multiuser configurations.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-49281/"}
