Overview

CVE-2026-74351 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 15, 2026.

Technical description

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

ocfs2: rebase copied fsdlm LVB pointers in locking_state

The locking_state debugfs iterator snapshots struct ocfs2_lock_res by

value under ocfs2_dlm_tracking_lock and later formats that copy in

ocfs2_dlm_seq_show(). That is fine for the inline fields, but the

userspace fsdlm stack stores the LVB through lksb_fsdlm.sb_lvbptr. Once

the iterator drops the tracking lock, a copied non-NULL sb_lvbptr still

points into the original lockres owner, so teardown can free that

container before the debugfs dump walks the raw LVB bytes.

Rebase the copied sb_lvbptr to the copied l_lksb before dumping the raw

LVB. The seq snapshot already carries the inline LVB storage reserved in

struct ocfs2_dlm_lksb, so the debugfs reader can dump the copied bytes

without borrowing the original lockres lifetime.

The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order

within that path:

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-74351?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine. Rather than flag a version number, it tests whether an issue like CVE-2026-74351 is actually reachable in your own applications and APIs, then verifies each finding before reporting it. That tells you if the weakness is a real, exploitable risk in your environment or a false positive you can safely deprioritize.
