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-2025-22126 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-2025-22126/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-22126/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-22126","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-22126/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-22126","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2025-22126","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-22126","GHSA-mg7c-mfqw-jg72","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2025-22126","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-22126"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's md driver allows local attackers to potentially execute code or escalate privileges via a race condition.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-416","name":"Use After Free"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nmd: fix mddev uaf while iterating all_mddevs list\n\nWhile iterating all_mddevs list from md_notify_reboot() and md_exit(),\nlist_for_each_entry_safe is used, and this can race with deletint the\nnext mddev, causing UAF:\n\nt1:\nspin_lock\n//list_for_each_entry_safe(mddev, n, ...)\n mddev_get(mddev1)\n // assume mddev2 is the next entry\n spin_unlock\n            t2:\n            //remove mddev2\n            ...\n            mddev_free\n            spin_lock\n            list_del\n            spin_unlock\n            kfree(mddev2)\n mddev_put(mddev1)\n spin_lock\n //continue dereference mddev2-\u003eall_mddevs\n\nThe old helper for_each_mddev() actually grab the reference of mddev2\nwhile holding the lock, to prevent from being freed.
