CVE-2026-31634 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rxrpc: fix reference count leak in rxrpc_server_keyring() This patch fixes a reference count leak in rxrpc_server_keyring() by checking if rx->securities is already set.
A reference count leak vulnerability has been identified in the Linux kernel's RxRPC implementation, specifically within the 'rxrpc_server_keyring()' function. This vulnerability affects the stable branch of the Linux kernel. The issue arises because the function does not properly manage the reference count, leading to a potential resource leak. The vulnerability can be exploited by manipulating the 'rx->securities' field, which, if not checked, can cause improper reference counting and potentially allow for unauthorized access or modification of resources.
Users can upgrade to the latest version of the Linux kernel where this vulnerability has been patched. Instructions for upgrading can be found in the official Linux kernel documentation.
