This only\nensures that `cp` will not be freed. Therefore, the reference count for\n`cp` can drop to zero, which will trigger a refcount use-after-free\nwarning when `cache_get` is called. To resolve this issue, use\n`cache_get_rcu` to ensure that `cp` remains active.\n\n------------[ cut here ]------------\nrefcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.\nWARNING: CPU: 7 PID: 822 at lib/refcount.c:25\nrefcount_warn_saturate+0xb1/0x120\nCPU: 7 UID: 0 PID: 822 Comm: cat Not tainted 6.12.0-rc3+ #1\nHardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS\n1.16.1-2.fc37 04/01/2014\nRIP: 0010:refcount_warn_saturate+0xb1/0x120\n\nCall Trace:\n <TASK>\n c_show+0x2fc/0x380 [sunrpc]\n seq_read_iter+0x589/0x770\n seq_read+0x1e5/0x270\n proc_reg_read+0xe1/0x140\n vfs_read+0x125/0x530\n ksys_read+0xc1/0x160\n do_syscall_64+0x5f/0x170\n entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7e","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:H/A:H","score":7.8},"cwes":["CWE-416"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/02999e135b013d85c6df738746e8e24699befee4","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/068c0b50f3f700b94f78850834cd91ae3b34c2c1","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2862eee078a4d2d1f584e7f24fa50dddfa5f3471","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/acfaf37888e0f0732fb6a50ff093dce6d99994d0","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c7dac3af57e38b2054f990e573256d90bf887958"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:57:56.913276502+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2024-53174","score":0.00257,"percentile":0.17381,"date":"2026-10-31"},"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).
