      <title>CVE-2026-93106 — crash_dump: release keyring reference at the correct time</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2026-93106</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;crash_dump: release keyring reference at the correct time&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;restore_dm_crypt_keys_to_thread_keyring() gets a reference to the user
keyring before restoring the saved dm-crypt keys.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The same keyring reference is then passed to add_key_to_keyring() for each
saved key, but add_key_to_keyring() drops that reference on every call.
This is only balanced when exactly one key is restored. With multiple
keys, the keyring reference is dropped too many times and may trigger a
refcount underflow or use-after-free.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When more than five keys are restored, a refcount underflow/use-after-free
warning can be triggered.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The early error paths after lookup_user_key() also return without dropping
the keyring reference.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Keep ownership of the keyring reference in
restore_dm_crypt_keys_to_thread_keyring(), drop it once on all exit paths,
and make add_key_to_keyring() only use the reference without consuming it.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
