{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2026-90131","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  ntfs: serialize resident iomap reads with mrec_lock  ntfs_read_iomap_begin_resident() walks the MFT record through ntfs_attr_lookup() -\u003e ntfs_attr_find() without taking ni-\u003emrec_lock, while ntfs_attr_record_resize(), ntfs_make_room_for_attr() and ntfs_resident_attr_record_add() memmove() the same base_ni-\u003emrec buffer under that lock. map_mft_record() only takes a reference and does not serialize, so the reader can observe torn attribute length and offset fields while a writer is relocating the records.  KCSAN reports the race between the mmap read fault path and both link() and unlink():    BUG: KCSAN: data-race in ntfs_attr_find / ntfs_attr_record_resize    write to 0xffff888100af1018 of 4 bytes by task 96 on cpu 1:    ntfs_attr_record_resize+0xd2/0x130    ntfs_attr_record_rm+0xad/0x530    ntfs_delete+0x224/0x640    ntfs_unlink+0x14d/0x280    vfs_unlink+0x157/0x520    read to 0xffff888100af1018 of 4 bytes by task 95 on cpu 0:    ntfs_attr_find+0x104/0x5b0    ntfs_attr_lookup+0x39c/0x10c0    ntfs_read_iomap_begin_resident+0xc6/0x230    ntfs_read_iomap_begin+0x5d/0xa0    iomap_iter+0x2e2/0x6e0    iomap_read_folio+0x147/0x2a0    ntfs_read_folio+0x108/0x170    filemap_read_folio+0x35/0x100    filemap_fault+0x993/0x1000    value changed: 0x00000250 -\u003e 0x000001f0  The address is mrec + 0x18, i.e. mft_record.bytes_in_use, and the change is the 96 bytes of one $FILE_NAME attribute being removed.  Keep base_ni-\u003emrec_lock from the resident read iomap lookup through iomap_end(). This protects both the attribute walk and the subsequent copy from iomap-\u003einline_data, which points into the MFT record. The non-resident path is left alone: ntfs_lookup() already holds the directory inode's mrec_lock when it reads an index folio through read_mapping_folio(), and taking the lock in the shared wrapper deadlocks there with recursive locking on mrec_lock. The comment above the read_mapping_folio() call in fs/ntfs/dir.c notes the same hazard.  The seek path uses the same lookup helper but does not dereference iomap-\u003einline_data. Release the lock before returning from that path, whereas the regular read path records base_ni in iomap-\u003eprivate and releases the lock from its iomap_end() callback.  Tested with a reproducer that faults in a 16-byte resident file while another thread runs link()/unlink() on it. Before: 40 KCSAN reports in about one second. After: no reports in 180 seconds over 206,090 read iterations and 423,540 link/unlink cycles. A PROVE_LOCKING build shows no lockdep splat with the same reproducer running for 60 seconds.","modified":"2026-09-23T04:01:49.713290820Z","published":"2026-09-17T17:17:05.617Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-90131"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-90131"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"linux","ecosystem":"Debian:14","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/linux?arch=source&distro=forky"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"7.2.6-1"}]}],"versions":["6.12.100-1","6.12.101-1","6.12.105-1","6.12.107-1","6.12.38-1","6.12.41-1","6.12.43-1","6.12.43-1~bpo12+1","6.12.48-1","6.12.57-1","6.12.57-1~bpo12+1","6.12.63-1","6.12.63-1~bpo12+1","6.12.69-1","6.12.69-1~bpo12+1","6.12.73-1","6.12.73-1~bpo12+1","6.12.74-1","6.12.74-2","6.12.74-2~bpo12+1","6.12.85-1","6.12.85-1~bpo12+1","6.12.86-1","6.12.86-1~bpo12+1","6.12.88-1","6.12.88-1~bpo12+1","6.12.90-1","6.12.90-1~bpo12+1","6.12.90-2","6.12.90-2~bpo12+1","6.12.94-1","6.12.94-1~bpo12+1","6.12.95-1","6.12.95-1~bpo12+1","6.12.96-1","6.13.10-1~exp1","6.13.11-1~exp1","6.13.2-1~exp1","6.13.3-1~exp1","6.13.4-1~exp1","6.13.5-1~exp1","6.13.6-1~exp1","6.13.7-1~exp1","6.13.8-1~exp1","6.13.9-1~exp1","6.13~rc6-1~exp1","6.13~rc7-1~exp1","6.14.3-1~exp1","6.14.5-1~exp1","6.14.6-1~exp1","6.15-1~exp1","6.15.1-1~exp1","6.15.2-1~exp1","6.15.3-1~exp1","6.15.4-1~exp1","6.15.5-1~exp1","6.15.6-1~exp1","6.15~rc7-1~exp1","6.16-1~exp1","6.16.1-1~exp1","6.16.10-1","6.16.11-1","6.16.12-1","6.16.12-1~bpo13+1","6.16.12-2","6.16.3-1","6.16.3-1~bpo13+1","6.16.5-1","6.16.6-1","6.16.7-1","6.16.8-1","6.16.9-1","6.16~rc7-1~exp1","6.17.10-1","6.17.11-1","6.17.12-1","6.17.13-1","6.17.13-1~bpo13+1","6.17.2-1~exp1","6.17.5-1~exp1","6.17.6-1","6.17.7-1","6.17.7-2","6.17.8-1","6.17.8-1~bpo13+1","6.17.9-1","6.18.1-1~exp1","6.18.10-1","6.18.12-1","6.18.12-1~bpo13+1","6.18.13-1","6.18.14-1","6.18.15-1","6.18.15-1~bpo13+1","6.18.2-1~exp1","6.18.3-1","6.18.5-1","6.18.5-1~bpo13+1","6.18.8-1","6.18.9-1","6.18.9-1~bpo13+1","6.18~rc4-1~exp1","6.18~rc4-1~exp2","6.18~rc5-1~exp1","6.18~rc6-1~exp1","6.18~rc7-1~exp1","6.19-1~exp1","6.19.10-1","6.19.10-1~bpo13+1","6.19.11-1","6.19.11-1~bpo13+1","6.19.12-1","6.19.13-1","6.19.13-1~bpo13+1","6.19.14-1","6.19.14-1~bpo13+1","6.19.2-1~exp1","6.19.3-1~exp1","6.19.4-1~exp1","6.19.5-1~exp1","6.19.6-1","6.19.6-2","6.19.6-2~bpo13+1","6.19.8-1","6.19.8-1~bpo13+1","6.19~rc4-1~exp1","6.19~rc5-1~exp1","6.19~rc6-1~exp1","6.19~rc7-1~exp1","6.19~rc8-1~exp1","7.0-1~exp1","7.0.1-1~exp1","7.0.10-1","7.0.10-1~bpo13+1","7.0.12-1","7.0.12-2","7.0.12-2~bpo13+1","7.0.13-1","7.0.13-1~bpo13+1","7.0.14-1","7.0.3-1","7.0.4-1","7.0.4-1~bpo13+1","7.0.7-1","7.0.7-1~bpo13+1","7.0.9-1","7.0.9-1~bpo13+1","7.1.1-1~exp1","7.1.10-1","7.1.12-1","7.1.13-1","7.1.2-1~exp1","7.1.3-1","7.1.3-1+sunvdc","7.1.3-1~bpo13+1","7.1.4-1","7.1.5-1","7.1.6-1","7.1.7-1","7.1.7-1~bpo13+1","7.1.8-1","7.1.8-1~bpo13+1","7.1.8-2","7.1.9-1","7.1.9-1+sparc64","7.1~rc2-1~exp1","7.1~rc3-1~exp1","7.1~rc4-1~exp1","7.1~rc4-1~exp2","7.1~rc5-1~exp1","7.1~rc7-1~exp1","7.2.2-1~exp1","7.2.3-1~exp1","7.2~rc3-1~exp1","7.2~rc5-1~exp1","7.2~rc7-1~exp1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-90131.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H"}]}
