CVE-2026-89990NVD

Vulnerability Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ceph: lock mutex in ceph_mds_check_access()

MDS session OPEN handling replaces mdsc->s_cap_auths under
mdsc->mutex, freeing the previous array and its strings.

ceph_mds_check_access() traverses this array without holding the
mutex. A concurrent session reopen can therefore free the array while
it is being inspected, resulting in a use-after-free like this:

Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 003aaad64b2c8bb9
