      <title>CVE-2026-64062 — netfs: Fix potential deadlock in write-through mode</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-64062</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;netfs: Fix potential deadlock in write-through mode&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fix netfs_advance_writethrough() to always unlock the supplied folio and to
mark it dirty if it isn&amp;#39;t yet written to the end.  Unfortunately, it can&amp;#39;t
be marked for writeback until the folio is done with as that may cause a
deadlock against mmapped reads and writes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Even though it has been marked dirty, premature writeback can&amp;#39;t occur as
the caller is holding both inode-&amp;gt;i_rwsem (which will prevent concurrent
truncation, fallocation, DIO and other writes) and ictx-&amp;gt;wb_lock (which
will cause flushing to wait and writeback to skip or wait).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Note that this may be easier to deal with once the queuing of folios is
split from the generation of subrequests.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
