By passing a userfaultfd-monitored memory page (or\nFUSE-backed memory on systems where unprivileged userfaultfd is disabled)\nas the optval, an attacker can halt execution during the copy operation,\nkeeping the lock held.\n\nCombined with asynchronous tear-down operations like shutdown(), this\nexhausts the kernel wq (kworkers) and triggers the hung task watchdog.\n\n[  240.123456] INFO: task kworker/u8:2 blocked for more than 120 seconds.\n[  240.123489] Call Trace:\n[  240.123501]  smc_shutdown+...\n[  240.123512]  lock_sock_nested+...\n\nThis patch moves the user-space copy outside the lock_sock() critical\nsection to prevent the issue.","modified":"2026-08-28T17:48:11.802457579Z","published":"2026-06-25T09:16:45Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-53274"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-53274"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"6.6.143.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-90900.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
