CVE-2026-97950

The Linux kernel contains a vulnerability in configfs where create_link() incorrectly relies on an item reference that pins the item but not its dentry. A race condition between a symlink creation and an rmdir of its target can cause configfs_remove_dir() to release the dentry via simple_rmdir() ...

Linux Kernel Security Vulnerabilities

The Linux kernel version 2.6.16 has a security vulnerability. This vulnerability stems from the createlink function in fs/configfs/symlink.c, which reads the target configfsdirent only for fixed items, but not for dentrys. When symbolic links interact with the target rmdir operation, it is possib...
