The initial\nmotivation for allowing different flags was the variable sized futex,\nbut since that hasn't been merged (yet), simply mandate the flags are\nidentical, as is the case for the old style sys_futex() requeue\noperations.","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/027145ace09fad4c7cbcd6c61fe9b429c63eb0e5","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/18b7d09c2b794c71d4252f3ea2cf84ad12b73d6a","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/19f94b39058681dec64a10ebeb6f23fe7fc3f77a","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e2f78c7ec1655fedd945366151ba54fcb9580508"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-21T03:43:09.190223697+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-31554","score":0.0021,"percentile":0.11154,"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).
