CVE-2026-23224
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
erofs: fix UAF issue for file-backed mounts w/ directio option
EROFS may encounter above panic when enabling file-backed mount w/ directio mount option, the root cause is it may suffer UAF in below race condition:
Introduce a reference count in struct erofs_fileio_rq, and initialize it as two, both erofs_fileio_ki_complete() and erofs_fileio_rq_submit() will decrease reference count, the last one decreasing the reference count to zero will free rq.
