The error handling nevertheless called\nnfs4_put_stateowner(stp->st_stateowner), dropping an so_count reference\nthe function never acquired -- risking a stateowner refcount underflow and\nuse-after-free -- while leaking the sc_count reference held on the stid.\nThe leaked stid reference can also stall a concurrent\nnfsd4_close_open_stateid() waiting for sc_count to drop.\n\nDrop the reference actually held -- the stid -- before retrying. The\nstateowner stays alive through the reference held by the stid. This mirrors\nthe open path in nfsd4_process_open1(), where the put balances a reference\nthat path explicitly holds on the stateowner.","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":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/00843074d9b84824552c9679d423d29500ca5de0","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5e4627d3513e60accfce9d5f4c7fa95251ef93d6","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/69ed78b6b947c9257213164678b4edf17533093b","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f7cb90ddc021747fc9abfd4cf5252d425fd34eec"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:53:43.293028046+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-89688","score":0.00736,"percentile":0.54177,"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).
