Overview

CVE-2026-74375 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 15, 2026.

Technical description

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

md/raid1,raid10: fix deadlock in read error recovery path

raid1d and raid10d may resubmit a split md cloned bio while handling

a read error. In this case, resubmitting the bio can lead to a deadlock

if the array is suspended before md_handle_request() acquires an

active_io reference via percpu_ref_tryget_live().

Since the cloned bio already holds an active_io reference,

trying to acquire another reference via percpu_ref_tryget_live()

can lead to a deadlock while the array is suspended.

Fix this by using percpu_ref_get() for md cloned bios.
