Although mempool\nrecycled memory is not immediately reclaimed or overwritten in practice,\nthis is still a potential UAF bug.\n\nAdditionally, for expired invalid keys, setting the cache->seg_map bit\nand calling cache_seg_get() is unreasonable since the corresponding\nsegment data is no longer valid.\n\nFix both issues by moving cache_seg_get() and __set_bit() after the\ngen check, so they only execute for valid keys, and using continue to\nskip invalid keys.","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/1894fc7a3bab90143dcd26ef8ee27040ef4a7501","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c2e894eac398b258f12fdec73ed6ba081047f7b3","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f39a3e9cc5946473e16d6f5071b2ee0216c56d06"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:53:43.293028046+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-80955","score":0.00168,"percentile":0.06141,"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).
