Race condition in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-68095
Published: August 12, 2026
Vulnerability details
The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to a race condition in fuse_uring_do_register in fs/fuse/dev_uring.c when registering a FUSE io_uring ring entry while a connection abortion is occurring. A local user can trigger concurrent registration and connection abort operations to cause a denial of service.
The issue can leave the abort or unmount thread hung indefinitely in an unkillable state and may leak ring, queue, and entry objects.
