However, before the tracepoint could\nfire, another task raced in and freed that lock.\n\nFix this by moving the tracepoint inside the spinlock, which should\nensure that this doesn't happen.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.0},"cwes":["CWE-416"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/02a8964260756c70b20393ad4006948510ac9967","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/116599f6a26906cf33f67975c59f0692ecf7e9b2","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1b3ec4f7c03d4b07bad70697d7e2f4088d2cfe92","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1cbbb3d9475c403ebedc327490c7c2b991398197","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/432b06b69d1d354a171f7499141116536579eb6a"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:53:51.317825789+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2024-41049","score":0.00281,"percentile":0.20599,"date":"2026-11-01"},"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).
