CVE-2026-23239

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: espintcp: Fix race condition in espintcp_close() This issue was discovered during a code audit. After cancel_work_sync() is called from espintcp_close(), espintcp_tx_work() can still be scheduled from paths such as the Delayed ACK handler or ksoftirqd. As a result, the espintcp_tx_work() worker may dereference a freed espintcp ctx or sk. The following is a simple race scenario: cpu0 cpu1 espintcp_close() cancel_work_sync(&ctx->work); espintcp_write_space() schedule_work(&ctx->work); To prevent this race condition, cancel_work_sync() is replaced with disable_work_sync().

CVE-2026-23239

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's espintcp component. A local attacker with low privileges could exploit a race condition in the espintcp_close() function. This could allow the espintcp_tx_work() worker to access freed memory, potentially leading to a system crash and resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
