CVE-2026-23184
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
binder: fix UAF in binder_netlink_report()
Oneway transactions sent to frozen targets via binder_proc_transaction() return a BR_TRANSACTION_PENDING_FROZEN error but they are still treated as successful since the target is expected to thaw at some point. It is then not safe to access 't' after BR_TRANSACTION_PENDING_FROZEN errors as the transaction could have been consumed by the now thawed target.
This is the case for binder_netlink_report() which derreferences 't' after a pending frozen error, as pointed out by the following KASAN report:

Instead, make a transaction copy so the data can be safely accessed by binder_netlink_report() after a pending frozen error. While here, add a comment about not using t->buffer in binder_netlink_report().
