      <title>CVE-2026-93073 — dax: read holder_ops once in dax_holder_notify_failure()</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2026-93073</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;dax: read holder_ops once in dax_holder_notify_failure()&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;dax_holder_notify_failure() reads dax_dev-&amp;gt;holder_ops twice without
READ_ONCE() -- once for the NULL check and once for the indirect
notify_failure() call. A concurrent fs_put_dax() can clear holder_ops
between the two reads, so the check can observe a non-NULL pointer while
the call dereferences NULL. (kill_dax() also clears holder_ops, but only
after synchronize_srcu(), so it cannot race a reader that is inside
dax_read_lock(); fs_put_dax() does no such synchronization.)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fetch holder_ops once into a local with READ_ONCE() so the NULL check and
the indirect call observe the same value.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
