Going to next bucket may not only\nskip the elements in current bucket silently, but also incur\nout-of-bound memory access or expose kernel memory to userspace if\ncurrent bucket_cnt is greater than bucket_size or zero.\n\nFixing it by stopping batch operation and returning -EBUSY when\nhtab_lock_bucket() fails, and the application can retry or skip the busy\nbatch as needed.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H","score":7.1},"cwes":["CWE-125"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0e13425104903970a5ede853082d3bbb4edec6f3","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4f1f39a8f1ce1b24fee6852d7dcd704ce7c4334d","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/66a7a92e4d0d091e79148a4c6ec15d1da65f4280","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6bfee6eb3d6b96ae730a542909dd22b5f9f50d58"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:11:26.888974865+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2022-50490","score":0.00163,"percentile":0.05449,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
