{"apiVersion":"1.0","identifier":"CVE-2026-72190","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ntfs: fix mrec_lock ABBA deadlock in rename ntfs_file_fsync(), ntfs_dir_fsync() and __ntfs_write_inode() lock an inode-s mrec_lock before taking the mrec_lock of its parent directory. ntfs_rename() takes old_ni->mrec_lock and old_dir_ni->mrec_lock before taking new_ni->mrec_lock for an existing target, or new_dir_ni->mrec_lock for a cross-directory rename. This can deadlock when ntfs_file_fsync() or __ntfs_write_inode() holds the target inode, or when ntfs_dir_fsync() holds a child target directory, while rename() holds the parent directory and waits for the target. Fix this by locking the existing target inode before taking any parent directory mrec_lock. For cross-directory renames where the target parent is a descendant of the source parent, lock the target parent before the source parent so the directory order matches the child-to-parent order used by ntfs_file_fsync(), ntfs_dir_fsync(), and __ntfs_write_inode().","publishedAt":"2026-08-15T06:21:37","lastModifiedAt":"2026-08-17T06:18:19","sourceUrl":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-72190","cvssScore":null,"cvssVector":"Pending","epssProbability":0.00189,"riskScore":0,"affectedProduct":"linux","affectedVersions":"unknown","vulnerabilityType":"Kernel","operatingSystems":[],"links":{"self":"https://www.redsauce.net/api/cves/CVE-2026-72190","webPages":{"es":"https://www.redsauce.net/es/cves/CVE-2026-72190","en":"https://www.redsauce.net/en/cves/CVE-2026-72190","fr":"https://www.redsauce.net/fr/cves/CVE-2026-72190","pt":"https://www.redsauce.net/pt/cves/CVE-2026-72190","de":"https://www.redsauce.net/de/cves/CVE-2026-72190","sk":"https://www.redsauce.net/sk/cves/CVE-2026-72190","el":"https://www.redsauce.net/el/cves/CVE-2026-72190"},"source":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-72190"}}
