CVE-2026-53274
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: fix sleep-inside-lock in __smc_setsockopt() causing local DoS
A logic flaw in __smc_setsockopt() allows a local unprivileged user to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by holding the socket lock indefinitely.
The function __smc_setsockopt() calls copy_from_sockptr() while holding lock_sock(sk). By passing a userfaultfd-monitored memory page (or FUSE-backed memory on systems where unprivileged userfaultfd is disabled) as the optval, an attacker can halt execution during the copy operation, keeping the lock held.
Combined with asynchronous tear-down operations like shutdown(), this exhausts the kernel wq (kworkers) and triggers the hung task watchdog.

This patch moves the user-space copy outside the lock_sock() critical section to prevent the issue.
