      <title>CVE-2026-98669 — iio: buffer: serialize buffer teardown with mode claims</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2026-98669</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;iio: buffer: serialize buffer teardown with mode claims&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Buffer-mode claims hold mlock to guarantee that the device remains in
buffer mode until the claim is released. Normal buffer updates take
info_exist_lock followed by mlock in iio_update_buffers().&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;However, iio_device_unregister() disables and deactivates all buffers
without taking mlock. This can invalidate buffer state, including
active_scan_mask, while a buffer-mode claim is held.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Take mlock in iio_disable_all_buffers() so that unregister honors the
mode-claim lifetime guarantee. The info_exist_lock -&amp;gt; mlock ordering
matches iio_update_buffers().&lt;/p&gt;</description>
