{"cve":"CVE-2026-89600","nvd":{"published":"2026-09-11T20:19:44.870","modified":"2026-10-19T09:17:56.520","status":"Received","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nfanotify: fix use-after-free of file range info\n\nfsnotify_pre_content() builds its file_range on the triggering task's\nstack. fanotify_alloc_perm_event() saves a pointer to range.pos in the\nheap-allocated permission event so copy_range_info_to_user() can report\nthe offset later.\n\nThe event reader can set the event state to FAN_EVENT_REPORTED and then\nsleep while preparing the file descriptor. If a signal interrupts the\ntriggering task at that point, fanotify_get_response() changes the state\nto FAN_EVENT_CANCELED and returns. This unwinds the file_range stack\nframe while the reader still owns the event. The reader then dereferences\npevent->ppos and copies the stale stack value to userspace.\n\nKASAN reported:\n\n  BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in fanotify_read+0x293e/0x2970\n  Read of size 8 at addr ffff88811434fc50 by task fanotify_inotif/95\n  Call Trace:\n   fanotify_read+0x293e/0x2970\n   vfs_read+0x177/0xa20\n   ksys_read+0xf7/0x1c0\n   do_syscall_64+0xf9/0x540\n   entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f\n\nStore the range position directly in the permission event and use\nFANOTIFY_NO_RANGE when range information is unavailable. The event remains\nalive until the reader finishes, so the reported offset no longer depends\non the triggering task's stack.","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/66aa9a9e6481bfa512ee5b6380eaaec455a954d2","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b8f73b163b646bc56d4dce9c697a578e333f4894","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d7f1cf5be33ef0175a4e8ed8687aeb98fb00a851"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:53:43.293028046+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-89600","score":0.00124,"percentile":0.02096,"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).
