Use file_mnt_idmap(filp) instead.","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":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0baeb730044981f5ec5fb7d62a3763835ea606f6","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/174633a468817a49bd474bcfc9067c84e54efe68","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/33b7e810ce09955aa02f3b632455cf5e7ac990a9","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/653e888a24c87b8bbeab44d7e558a1c1a3641088","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6a67c460b12315033268dce597546984fe5739e7"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:49:38.260478770+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-74595","score":0.00092,"percentile":0.0051,"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).
