Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-26 21:32 – Updated: 2026-07-06 21:30In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fuse: fix uninit-value in fuse_dentry_revalidate()
fuse_dentry_revalidate() may be called with a dentry that didn't had ->d_time initialised. The issue was found with KMSAN, where lookup_open() calls __d_alloc(), followed by d_revalidate(), as shown below:
