remote client reads reach md_submit_bio()→raid1/raid10_read_request(), and mirror read failures drive handle_read_error() on the blocked raid1d/raid10d thread without local shell access.\nAC:L - An attacker can reliably hit the bug by reading sectors on a degraded mirror that return errors (common on production arrays), issuing large reads that bio_submit_split_bioset() splits on the error-retry path, and concurrently applying memory pressure so GFP_NOIO bio_alloc_clone() blocks reclaim while raid1d/raid10d holds the array frozen.\nPR:N - Triggering the fault path requires only permission to read exported storage or files on an md-backed filesystem; no CAP_SYS_ADMIN, md ioctl, or init-namespace root is needed because read I/O and mirror error recovery run with no extra capability checks beyond normal block-device access.\nUI:N - No victim interaction is required; exploitation uses the attacker's own read I/O (or scripted NFS/SMB/iSCSI reads) together with memory pressure, without anyone mounting disks, acknowledging bad blocks, or performing other cooperative actions.\nS:U - The circular GFP_NOIO allocation wait while raid1d/raid10d is blocked in handle_read_error() freezes I/O within the same host kernel and md security domain; it does not cross VM, container, or IOMMU boundaries.\nC:N - This is a GFP-flag misclassification causing reclaim/I/O circular wait (deadlock), not memory corruption, out-of-bounds access, use-after-free, or other primitives that could disclose kernel or user data.\nI:N - The flaw does not enable arbitrary writes, code execution, or silent data modification; impact is limited to blocking forward progress in the RAID error-recovery path under memory pressure.\nA:H - Without __GFP_HIGH on the error path, bio_alloc_clone() can stall reclaim while raid1d/raid10d blocks with the array frozen, deadlocking all I/O to the md device and potentially hanging root/data volumes on enterprise RAID1/RAID10 servers." } ] } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/md/raid1.c", "drivers/md/raid10.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "689389a06ce79fdced85b5115717f71c71e623e0", "lessThan": "029b363c9b690613141338436ac91366b1928af2", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "689389a06ce79fdced85b5115717f71c71e623e0", "lessThan": "20fb582c92fd64e5c8bd83c6176264b2794603b7", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "689389a06ce79fdced85b5115717f71c71e623e0", "lessThan": "811545e0926d02a6a0b1a1258bb5544777c164d4", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/md/raid1.c", "drivers/md/raid10.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "4.12", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "4.12", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.18.57", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.1.5", "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": "4.12", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.57" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "4.12", "versionEndExcluding": "7.1.5" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "4.12", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/029b363c9b690613141338436ac91366b1928af2" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/20fb582c92fd64e5c8bd83c6176264b2794603b7" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/811545e0926d02a6a0b1a1258bb5544777c164d4" } ], "title": "md/raid1,raid10: fix error-path detection with md_cloned_bio()", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } }, "adp": [ { "metrics": [ { "other": { "type": "ssvc", "content": { "id": "CVE-2026-74374", "role": "CISA Coordinator", "options": [ { "Exploitation": "none" }, { "Automatable": "yes" }, { "Technical Impact": "partial" } ], "version": "2.0.3", "timestamp": "2026-10-16T18:54:43.023630Z" } } } ], "title": "CISA ADP Vulnrichment", "providerMetadata": { "orgId": "134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0", "shortName": "CISA-ADP", "dateUpdated": "2026-10-16T18:55:36.037Z" } } ] } }
