{"id":"AZL-96398","summary":"CVE-2026-72439 affecting package kernel 6.6.150.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nmd/raid10: fix writes_pending leak on write request failures\n\nraid10_make_request() acquires a writes_pending reference with\nmd_write_start() before dispatching write requests. Several failure\npaths in raid10_write_request() complete the bio and return without\nreaching the normal write completion path, causing the corresponding\nmd_write_end() to be skipped.\n\nMake raid10_write_request() return a status indicating whether the write\nrequest was successfully queued. This allows raid10_make_request() to\nrelease the writes_pending reference with md_write_end() when a write\nrequest fails.","modified":"2026-09-03T05:27:10Z","published":"2026-08-15T06:22:17Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-72439"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-72439"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"6.6.150.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-96398.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
