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-2026-93196 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-2026-93196/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-93196/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-93196","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-93196/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-93196","record":{"aliases":["AZL-102605","BELL-CVE-2026-93196","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-93196","GHSA-8m98-gqrc-3mr3","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-93196"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's virtio_pmem driver allows attackers to cause a system crash or potentially execute arbitrary code.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.4,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnvdimm: virtio_pmem: refcount requests for token lifetime\n\nKASAN reports slab-use-after-free in __wake_up_common():\nBUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __wake_up_common+0x114/0x160\nRead of size 8 at addr ffff88810fdcb710 by task swapper/0/0\n\nCPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted\n6.19.0-next-20260220-00006-g1eae5f204ec3 #4 PREEMPT(full)\nHardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS Arch Linux\n1.17.0-2-2 04/01/2014\nCall Trace:\n \u003cIRQ\u003e\n dump_stack_lvl+0x6d/0xb0\n print_report+0x170/0x4e2\n ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x10/0x10\n ? __virt_addr_valid+0x1dc/0x380\n kasan_report+0xbc/0xf0\n ? __wake_up_common+0x114/0x160\n ? __wake_up_common+0x114/0x160\n __wake_up_common+0x114/0x160\n ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x10/0x10\n __wake_up+0x36/0x60\n virtio_pmem_host_ack+0x11d/0x3b0\n ? sched_balance_domains+0x29f/0xb00\n ? __pfx_virtio_pmem_host_ack+0x10/0x10\n ? _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x98/0x100\n ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x10/0x10\n vring_interrupt+0x1c9/0x5e0\n ? __pfx_vp_interrupt+0x10/0x10\n vp_vring_interrupt+0x87/0x100\n ? __pfx_vp_interrupt+0x10/0x10\n __handle_irq_event_percpu+0x17f/0x550\n ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock+0x10/0x10\n handle_irq_event+0xab/0x1c0\n handle_fasteoi_irq+0x276/0xae0\n __common_interrupt+0x65/0x130\n common_interrupt+0x78/0xa0\n \u003c/IRQ\u003e\n\nvirtio_pmem_host_ack() wakes a request that has already been freed by the\nsubmitter.\n\nThis happens when the request token is still reachable via the virtqueue,\nbut virtio_pmem_flush() returns and frees it.\n\nFix the token lifetime by refcounting struct virtio_pmem_request.\nvirtio_pmem_flush() holds a submitter reference, and the virtqueue holds an\nextra reference once the request is queued.
