1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-90151)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to trigger a use-after-free.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free in the NFSv4 callback identifier IDR when an NFSv4.0 callback lookup occurs after a client allocation failure. A remote attacker can trigger an NFSv4.0 callback lookup using the stale callback identifier to trigger a use-after-free.

Exploitation requires an NFSv4.0 client allocation to fail after a callback identifier has been allocated.
