      <title>CVE-2026-89989 — ima: Check for ERR_PTR from dentry_path() in validate_hash_algo()</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-89989</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;ima: Check for ERR_PTR from dentry_path() in validate_hash_algo()&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;dentry_path() returns ERR_PTR(-ENAMETOOLONG) when the path exceeds the
buffer. validate_hash_algo() passes the result straight to
integrity_audit_msg() without checking. ERR_PTR is not NULL, so
integrity_audit_message() sees a valid pointer and calls strlen() on
it, which faults:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffffffffdc
    RIP: 0010:strlen+0x30/0xa0
    Call Trace:
     audit_log_untrustedstring+0x19/0x30
     integrity_audit_message+0x366/0x4f0
     ima_inode_setxattr+0x512/0x5f0&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Check for IS_ERR() and use NULL instead, which makes the audit message
skip the name= field instead of crashing.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
