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-2026-74369 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-2026-74369/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-74369/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-74369","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-74369/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-74369","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2026-74369","GHSA-98h5-hm5g-wr83","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-74369"],"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":"high_privilege","summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel liveupdate subsystem allows local attackers with high privileges to execute arbitrary code or escalate privileges.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nliveupdate: fix u-a-f in luo_file_unpreserve_files() and luo_file_finish()\n\nIn luo_file_unpreserve_files() and luo_file_finish(), reorder\nmodule_put() and xa_erase() to ensure the file handler module remains\npinned while its operations are being accessed.\n\nSpecifically, luo_get_id() dereferences fh-\u003eops-\u003eget_id, so the module\nreference must be held until after xa_erase() (which calls luo_get_id)\ncompletes.\n\nFor luo_file_finish(), this requires moving the module_put() call out of\nthe luo_file_finish_one() helper and into the main loop of\nluo_file_finish() itself.","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":"liveupdate: fix u-a-f in luo_file_unpreserve_files() and luo_file_finish()","id":"CVE-2026-74369","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"liveupdate: fix TOCTOU race in luo_session_retrieve()","id":"CVE-2026-74370"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"wifi: ath12k: fix memory leak in ath12k_wifi7_dp_rx_h_verify_tkip_mic()","id":"CVE-2026-74368"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-08-15","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-17","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel liveupdate subsystem allows local attackers with high privileges to execute arbitrary code or escalate privileges.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-74369/"}
