      <title>CVE-2026-99036 — dm: fix reading free memory in do_resume</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2026-99036</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;dm: fix reading free memory in do_resume&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When do_resume calls dm_table_get_mode(new_map), the call is done without
holding any locks (it only holds a reference to the md). It may be
possible that another concurrent ioctl on the same device will swap table
after dm_swap_table and before dm_table_get_mode. In this case,
dm_table_get_mode(new_map) reads freed memory.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This race condition was triggered by syzbot.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This commit fixes the race by reading mode of the new table before
dm_swap_table. Note that new_map is also passed to dm_ima_need_measure,
but this function doesn&amp;#39;t attempt to dereference it, so this call should
be safe.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Note that this is not a security bug because only root can trigger it and
the commonly used tools such as lvm or cryptsetup do not call the ioctls
concurrently, so that they can&amp;#39;t trigger it acceidentally.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
