Network peers cannot directly reach this commit path.\nAC:L - The attacker controls request generation, predictable sequential commit IDs, concurrent commit submission, and deferred io_uring task-work execution. Both sides of the race are attacker-controlled.\nPR:L - An ordinary user can create and operate a FUSE mount through fusermount or CAP_SYS_ADMIN in a user namespace; FUSE permits user-namespace mounts and this path has no init-namespace capability check.\nUI:N - The attacker can operate both the FUSE daemon and a client thread that generates requests, requiring no victim action.\nS:U - Exploitation compromises the host kernel within the same security authority and does not cross a VM, IOMMU, or comparable boundary.\nC:H - The freed request's argument pointers and copy sources are dereferenced while copying into attacker-controlled ring memory. Heap reclamation can therefore expose sensitive kernel memory.\nI:H - The use-after-free performs writes to reclaimed request memory through embedded spinlocks and request flags, providing exploitable heap corruption that may enable arbitrary writes or kernel code execution.\nA:H - The dangling request can cause invalid dereferences, corrupted request state, double completion, hangs, or a kernel panic."}]}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["fs/fuse/dev_uring.c"],"versions":[{"version":"c090c8abae4b6b77a1bee116aa6c385456ebef96","lessThan":"e1711479e9068ea31b31353a702a51e639c3d059","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"c090c8abae4b6b77a1bee116aa6c385456ebef96","lessThan":"a635f427d57e2012102ae4886b48d8955c59fb86","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"c090c8abae4b6b77a1bee116aa6c385456ebef96","lessThan":"1efd3d474fc0ba74dfd984249bca78807d739812","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["fs/fuse/dev_uring.c"],"versions":[{"version":"6.14","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"6.14","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.39","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.1.4","lessThanOrEqual":"7.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.14","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.39"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.14","versionEndExcluding":"7.1.4"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.14","versionEndExcluding":"7.2"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e1711479e9068ea31b31353a702a51e639c3d059"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a635f427d57e2012102ae4886b48d8955c59fb86"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1efd3d474fc0ba74dfd984249bca78807d739812"}],"title":"fuse-uring: make a fuse_req on SQE commit only findable after memcpy","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
