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-2026-93100 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-2026-93100/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-93100/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-93100","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-93100/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-93100","record":{"aliases":["AZL-102354","BELL-CVE-2026-93100","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-93100","GHSA-x642-fqm9-qj5q","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-93100"],"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 race condition in the Linux kernel resctrl filesystem allows local attackers to trigger a use-after-free, potentially leading to code execution or privilege escalation.","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\nfs/resctrl: Prevent use-after-free in rdtgroup_kn_put()\n\nA struct rdtgroup is reference counted via rdtgroup::waitcount. Callers that\nneed the structure to remain valid across a sleep (while waiting on acquiring\nrdtgroup_mutex) take a reference with rdtgroup_kn_get() and release it with\nrdtgroup_kn_put().\n\nThe release path is intended to serve as the fallback freer: if the count\ndrops to zero and the group has already been marked RDT_DELETED,\nrdtgroup_kn_put() frees the structure.\n\nThe bulk teardown paths free_all_child_rdtgrp() and rmdir_all_sub() resulting\nfrom a resctrl directory remove or resctrl fs unmount act as the primary\nfreer: they hold rdtgroup_mutex and free each rdtgroup whose waitcount is\nzero, otherwise they set RDT_DELETED and leave the freeing to the last waiter.\n\nThese two freers race. rdtgroup_kn_put() commits waitcount == 0 with\natomic_dec_and_test() outside rdtgroup_mutex, then reads rdtgroup::flags.\nBetween those two operations a concurrent caller of free_all_child_rdtgrp()\nor rmdir_all_sub() (which holds the mutex) can observe waitcount == 0 via\natomic_read(), call rdtgroup_remove(), and kfree() the structure.\n\nThe subsequent read of rdtgroup::flags in rdtgroup_kn_put() is then\na use-after-free, and the structure may even be freed twice if the freed\nmemory happens to satisfy the RDT_DELETED flag check.\n\nReplace the bare atomic_dec_and_test() with atomic_dec_and_mutex_lock() so\nthat the decrement-to-zero takes rdtgroup_mutex before the count becomes\nglobally visible. The inspection of rdtgroup::flags then runs under the same\nmutex held by the bulk freers, making the two paths mutually exclusive.\n\nThe common case where the count does not reach zero remains lock-free.
