A malicious SMB server can return a replayable response and then force reconnect failure over the network, causing the client to free stale response state twice.\nAC:L - The peer controls both prerequisites by returning a status such as STATUS_RETRY and then disconnecting or refusing reconnection; repeated attempts make the scheduling window attacker-controllable.\nPR:N - The malicious SMB peer requires no account, capability, or other privilege on the vulnerable client; the established client session does not grant the attacker privileges on that host.\nUI:N - An ordinary automated CIFS workload can maintain an outstanding change-notify request, after which the remote peer completes the trigger without human involvement.\nS:U - Exploitation compromises the kernel and resources governed by the same host security authority, without crossing a separate virtualization or sandbox boundary.\nC:H - The double-free corrupts the CIFS response-buffer slab or mempool, permitting overlapping live objects and freelist manipulation that can support disclosure of arbitrary kernel memory.\nI:H - The heap corruption can provide attacker-influenced writes through aliased request and response buffers or freelist poisoning, potentially enabling kernel control-flow hijacking.\nA:H - Hardened allocators can immediately panic on the consecutive double-free, while unhardened allocators can crash later through freelist corruption." } ] } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "fs/smb/client/smb2pdu.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "433042a91f9373241307725b52de573933ffedbf", "lessThan": "5821f9dbb8b5b24391850a13418e633edd0fb003", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "4f1fffa2376922f3d1d506e49c0fd445b023a28e", "lessThan": "d684f4134998085702009b94c35c2003fc9e72d3", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "4f1fffa2376922f3d1d506e49c0fd445b023a28e", "lessThan": "52af1975f0dfae990c5a0e85872cc41be0e88a68", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "4f1fffa2376922f3d1d506e49c0fd445b023a28e", "lessThan": "901891513951bc8322ece754863909ea45af95c6", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "4f1fffa2376922f3d1d506e49c0fd445b023a28e", "lessThan": "145f820dcbb2cced374f2532f8a61a44dce4a615", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "6.6.32", "lessThan": "6.6.145", "status": "affected", "versionType": "semver" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "fs/smb/client/smb2pdu.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "6.8", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "6.8", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.6.145", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.6.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.12.96", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.18.39", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.1.4", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.1.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.2", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix" } ] } ], "cpeApplicability": [ { "nodes": [ { "operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [ { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.6.32", "versionEndExcluding": "6.6.145" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.8", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.96" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.8", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.39" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.8", "versionEndExcluding": "7.1.4" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.8", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5821f9dbb8b5b24391850a13418e633edd0fb003" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d684f4134998085702009b94c35c2003fc9e72d3" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/52af1975f0dfae990c5a0e85872cc41be0e88a68" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/901891513951bc8322ece754863909ea45af95c6" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/145f820dcbb2cced374f2532f8a61a44dce4a615" } ], "title": "smb: client: fix change notify replay double-free", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } }, "adp": [ { "metrics": [ { "other": { "type": "ssvc", "content": { "id": "CVE-2026-64384", "role": "CISA Coordinator", "options": [ { "Exploitation": "none" }, { "Automatable": "yes" }, { "Technical Impact": "total" } ], "version": "2.0.3", "timestamp": "2026-10-16T15:39:54.936911Z" } } } ], "problemTypes": [ { "descriptions": [ { "lang": "en", "type": "CWE", "cweId": "CWE-415", "description": "CWE-415 Double Free" } ] } ], "title": "CISA ADP Vulnrichment", "providerMetadata": { "orgId": "134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0", "shortName": "CISA-ADP", "dateUpdated": "2026-10-19T20:38:26.294Z" } } ] } }
