An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-97562 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-2026-97562/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-97562/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-97562","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-97562/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-97562","record":{"aliases":["AZL-104508","BELL-CVE-2026-97562","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-97562","GHSA-38c4-cggv-4792","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-97562"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel SMB client","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A race condition in the Linux kernel SMB client allows a use-after-free, potentially leading to system crashes or arbitrary code execution.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nsmb: client: pin DFS superblock in iterator callback\n\ntcon_super_cb() stores a raw superblock pointer, but __cifs_get_super()\ntakes its active reference only after iterate_supers_type() has dropped\ns_umount and its passive reference.
