1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-89536)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: 0 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a use-after-free condition.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free in SUNRPC client TLS handshake handling when cancellation loses a race with completion of a TLS handshake callback. A local user can interrupt or time out a synchronous TLS handshake wait while the completion callback is in flight to cause a use-after-free condition.
