The laundromat reaps timed-out entries,\ndrops nn->client_lock, and calls nfs4_put_stid(), which dereferences\nthe client through cl_lock. Nothing pins the client across that\nwindow, so a concurrent force_expire_client() can free it and\nnfs4_put_stid() reads freed memory. __destroy_client() hits the same\nrace, walking clp->cl_openowners without cl_lock.\n\nPin the client with cl_rpc_users before dropping client_lock, and\nskip clients already expiring. __destroy_client() then cleans up its\nown close_lru entries through release_last_closed_stateid(), so\nteardown no longer races the laundromat.","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/0763482227822f7343557f086afc382086d56c4c","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2330b788d732f43668b965b3105b37ceb276dfea","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/83dd59ac1c3455c2c7d8ddb582d980a13199b9b3","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/adc34b5df5c5d87043cb500b0867fc1c4ad0117e","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e57a9ed34ea8c17e831de59b8f1a6b2d80d347a1"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-22T16:41:11.231219466+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-90037","score":0.00484,"percentile":0.41428,"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).
