CVE-2026-43276 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: mana: Fix double destroy_workqueue on service rescan PCI path While testing corner cases in the driver, a use-after-free crash was found on the service rescan PCI path. When mana_serv_reset() calls mana_gd_suspend(), mana_gd_cleanup() destroys gc->service_wq. If the subsequent mana_gd_resume() fails with -ETIMEDOUT or -EPROTO, the code falls through to mana_serv_rescan() which triggers pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device(). This invokes the PCI .remove callback (mana_gd_remove), which calls mana_gd_cleanup() a second time, attempting to destroy the already- freed workqueue. Fix this by NULL-checking gc->service_wq in mana_gd_cleanup() and setting it to NULL after destruction.

A use-after-free vulnerability has been identified in the Linux kernel's PCI rescan service for the Microsoft Azure Network Adapter (MANA). This issue arises when the 'mana_serv_reset()' function calls 'mana_gd_suspend()', which cleans up and destroys the workqueue used for servicing events. If the subsequent 'mana_gd_resume()' fails, the code proceeds to 'mana_serv_rescan()', triggering a PCI device removal that invokes the cleanup process again, attempting to destroy the already-freed workqueue. This flaw can cause a crash by accessing freed memory, creating a potential exploitation vector.
Users can upgrade to the latest version of the Linux kernel where this vulnerability has been fixed. Instructions for downloading the patched version are available on the official Linux kernel website.
