{"apiVersion":"1.0","identifier":"CVE-2026-72494","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/irdma: Replace waitqueue and flag with completion The driver previously used a waitqueue along with an explicit request_done flag, but without proper barriers around request_done. An earlier patch by Gui-Dong Han <hanguidong02@gmail.com> attempted to fix this by adding the missing memory barriers. Rather than adding the barriers, this patch replaces the waitqueue+flag with a completion, which is designed for this exact purpose.","publishedAt":"2026-08-15T06:22:23","lastModifiedAt":"2026-08-17T06:19:17","sourceUrl":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-72494","cvssScore":9.8,"cvssVector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","epssProbability":0.00407,"riskScore":1.02,"affectedProduct":"Linux kernel","affectedVersions":"unknown","vulnerabilityType":"Kernel","operatingSystems":[],"links":{"self":"https://www.redsauce.net/api/cves/CVE-2026-72494","webPages":{"es":"https://www.redsauce.net/es/cves/CVE-2026-72494","en":"https://www.redsauce.net/en/cves/CVE-2026-72494","fr":"https://www.redsauce.net/fr/cves/CVE-2026-72494","pt":"https://www.redsauce.net/pt/cves/CVE-2026-72494","de":"https://www.redsauce.net/de/cves/CVE-2026-72494","sk":"https://www.redsauce.net/sk/cves/CVE-2026-72494","el":"https://www.redsauce.net/el/cves/CVE-2026-72494"},"source":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-72494"}}
