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-2026-64017 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-2026-64017/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-64017/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-64017","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-64017/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-64017","record":{"aliases":["AZL-92814","BELL-CVE-2026-64017","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-64017","GHSA-pqjq-mhgh-j532","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2026-64017","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-13-CVE-2026-64017","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-64017"],"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 in the Linux kernel block layer allows attackers to potentially execute code or escalate privileges via crafted I/O operations.","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":"cna","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\nblk-mq: pop cached request if it is usable\n\nWhen submitting a bio to blk-mq, if the task should sleep after peeking\na cached request, but before it pops it, the plug flushes and calls\nblk_mq_free_plug_rqs, freeing the cached_rqs. This creates a\nuse-after-free bug. Fix this by popping the cached request before any\npossible blocking calls if it is suitable for use.\n\nPopping this request first holds a queue reference, so avoid any\nserialization races with queue freezes and can safely proceed with\ndispatching that request to the driver. This potentially increases a\ntiming window from when a driver wants to freeze its queue to when\nrequests stop being dispatched. That scenario is off the fast path\nthough, and drivers need to appropriately handle requests during a\nfreeze request anyway.\n\nThe downside is the popped element needs to be individually freed when\nwe performed a bio plug merge. The cached request would have had to be\nfreed later anyway, but this patch does it inline with building the plug\nlist instead of after flushing it.","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":"blk-mq: pop cached request if it is usable","id":"CVE-2026-64017","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"net: mana: validate rx_req_idx to prevent out-of-bounds array access","id":"CVE-2026-64018"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"ksmbd: fix durable reconnect error path file lifetime","id":"CVE-2026-64016"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-07-19","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":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-19","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A use-after-free in the Linux kernel block layer allows attackers to potentially execute code or escalate privileges via crafted I/O operations.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-64017/"}
