{"apiVersion":"1.0","identifier":"CVE-2026-72219","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: lockd: Plug nlm_file leak when nlm_do_fopen() fails A client can repeatedly drive nlm_do_fopen() failures by presenting file handles that the underlying export rejects. After kzalloc_obj() succeeds in nlm_lookup_file(), the freshly allocated nlm_file is not yet inserted into nlm_files[]. The nlm_do_fopen() failure path jumps to out_unlock, which releases nlm_file_mutex and returns without freeing the allocation, so each failure leaks one nlm_file. Route the failure through out_free so kfree() runs before the function returns.","publishedAt":"2026-08-15T06:21:40","lastModifiedAt":"2026-08-17T06:18:22","sourceUrl":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-72219","cvssScore":null,"cvssVector":"Pending","epssProbability":0.00216,"riskScore":0,"affectedProduct":"linux","affectedVersions":"unknown","vulnerabilityType":"Kernel","operatingSystems":[],"links":{"self":"https://www.redsauce.net/api/cves/CVE-2026-72219","webPages":{"es":"https://www.redsauce.net/es/cves/CVE-2026-72219","en":"https://www.redsauce.net/en/cves/CVE-2026-72219","fr":"https://www.redsauce.net/fr/cves/CVE-2026-72219","pt":"https://www.redsauce.net/pt/cves/CVE-2026-72219","de":"https://www.redsauce.net/de/cves/CVE-2026-72219","sk":"https://www.redsauce.net/sk/cves/CVE-2026-72219","el":"https://www.redsauce.net/el/cves/CVE-2026-72219"},"source":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-72219"}}
