CVE-2026-43249
Estado: AnalizadaAlta (8.8)—
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
9p/xen: protect xen_9pfs_front_free against concurrent calls
The xenwatch thread can race with other back-end change notifications and call xen_9pfs_front_free() twice, hitting the observed general protection fault due to a double-free. Guard the teardown path so only one caller can release the front-end state at a time, preventing the crash.
This is a fix for the following double-free:
