      <title>CVE-2026-23372 — nfc: rawsock: cancel tx_work before socket teardown</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-23372</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;nfc: rawsock: cancel tx_work before socket teardown&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In rawsock_release(), cancel any pending tx_work and purge the write
queue before orphaning the socket.  rawsock_tx_work runs on the system
workqueue and calls nfc_data_exchange which dereferences the NCI
device.  Without synchronization, tx_work can race with socket and
device teardown when a process is killed (e.g. by SIGKILL), leading
to use-after-free or leaked references.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Set SEND_SHUTDOWN first so that if tx_work is already running it will
see the flag and skip transmitting, then use cancel_work_sync to wait
for any in-progress execution to finish, and finally purge any
remaining queued skbs.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
