Overview

CVE-2026-63810 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on July 19, 2026.

Technical description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

block: Avoid mounting the bdev pseudo-filesystem in userspace

The bdev pseudo-filesystem is an internal kernel filesystem with which

userspace should not interfere. Unregister it so that userspace cannot

even attempt to mount it.

This fixes a bug [1] that occurs when attempting to access files,

because the system call move_mount() uses pointers declared in the

inode_operations structure, which for the bdev pseudo-filesystem

are always equal to 0. `inode->i_op = &empty_iops;`

[1]
