Concurrent QUERY_DIRECTORY requests using the\nsame file handle can overwrite this pointer while an iterate_dir() callback\nis still using it, resulting in a stack use-after-free.\n\nAdd a per-file mutex and hold it while accessing the shared directory\nenumeration state. The lock covers scan restart, dot entry state,\nreaddir_data setup and iteration, and response construction. This prevents\nanother request from replacing readdir_data.private before the current\nrequest has finished using it and also serializes the shared file position.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":9.8},"cwes":["CWE-416"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1426fd79102539bc0ab5c8fced047ad4313b9908","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2a64dbf9c739ddf7a25a066507597bf89f8f73d2","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/64dac2d486ec1eb18dc00968b16a230b6b75ec24","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a1d5d31cad593ea5e1b637f2f39c9ef6d09d1199","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/be6d26bf27499977c746abc163659915082348d8"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:46:40.600842820+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-64397","score":0.00477,"percentile":0.41233,"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).
