CVE-2026-64066 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfs: Fix netfs_read_to_pagecache() to pause on subreq failure Fix netfs_read_to_pagecache() so that it pauses the generation of new subrequests if an already-issued subrequest fails.
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's netfs component has been addressed. The issue was that the function netfs_read_to_pagecache() did not properly manage subrequest failures. When a subrequest failed, the function continued to generate new subrequests, which could lead to inefficient reading and potential data handling issues. The vulnerability affected the Linux kernel stable tree.
Users can upgrade to the latest version of the Linux kernel stable tree, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
