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-2026-72012 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux. 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-2026-72012/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-72012/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-72012","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-72012/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-72012","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-72012","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-72012","GHSA-jc7h-x8xh-33g2","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-72012"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A race condition in the Linux kernel osnoise tracer could lead to use-after-free issues, potentially causing system crashes or denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"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-667","name":"Improper Locking"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ntracing/osnoise: Call synchronize_rcu() when unregistering\n\nThis ensures that any RCU readers traversing the instance list\nhave finished, before releasing the reference on the tracer that\nthe instance points to.","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":"tracing/osnoise: Call synchronize_rcu() when unregistering","id":"CVE-2026-72012","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"race_condition","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"riscv: Prevent NULL pointer dereference in machine_kexec_prepare()","id":"CVE-2026-72013"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"s390/diag: Add missing array_index_nospec() call to memtop_get_page_count()","id":"CVE-2026-72011"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-08-15","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"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 race condition in the Linux kernel osnoise tracer could lead to use-after-free issues, potentially causing system crashes or denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-72012/"}
