CVE-2026-23053

Summary (CVE-2026-23053): A Linux kernel vulnerability in NFS can deadlock during NFSv4.1 state recovery when kthreadd tries to reclaim memory by calling nfs_release_folio(). The deadlock prevents progress in nfs_release_folio(), which delays memory reclamation. The fix implemented is to initiate...

Vulnerability of functions kcompactd() (mm/compaction.c) and nfs_release_folio() (fs/nfs/file.c) in the Linux operating system, allowing a hacker to trigger a service failure

The vulnerability of the functions kcompactd mm/compaction.c and nfsreleasefolio fs/nfs/file.c in the Linux kernel is related to improper locking mechanisms. Exploiting this vulnerability could allow an attacker to cause service failures...

CVE-2025-21908

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: NFS: fix nfsreleasefolio to not deadlock via kcompactd writeback Add PFKCOMPACTD flag and currentiskcompactd helper to check for it so nfsreleasefolio can skip calling nfswbfolio from kcompactd. Otherwise NFS can deadlock waiting...
