VULNERABILITIES

CVE-2026-74728 Details

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xfs: handle NULL b_addr in xfs_buf_free When xfs_buf_alloc_backing_mem() fails, xfs_buf_free() is called with bp->b_addr still NULL. The code falls through to the folio_put path which calls virt_to_folio(NULL), dereferencing an invalid address and causing a kernel crash. Call Trace: xfs_buf_free+0x25f/0x510 xfs_buf_alloc+0xc98/0x19b0 xfs_buf_find_insert+0x55/0x14d0 xfs_buf_get_map+0x122b/0x17c0 xfbtree_init_leaf_block+0x11c/0x4a0 xfbtree_init+0x1bb/0x460 xrep_rmap_setup_scan+0x100/0x1f0 xrep_rmapbt+0x41/0xc0 Fix this by skipping folio_put() when bp->b_addr is NULL.
