CVE-2026-63810

NameCVE-2026-63810
DescriptionIn the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: block: Avoid mounting the bdev pseudo-filesystem in userspace The bdev pseudo-filesystem is an internal kernel filesystem with which userspace should not interfere. Unregister it so that userspace cannot even attempt to mount it. This fixes a bug [1] that occurs when attempting to access files, because the system call move_mount() uses pointers declared in the inode_operations structure, which for the bdev pseudo-filesystem are always equal to 0. `inode->i_op = &empty_iops;` [1] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000 #PF: supervisor instruction fetch in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0010) - not-present page PGD 23380067 P4D 23380067 PUD 23381067 PMD 0 Oops: 0010 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN NOPTI CPU: 2 PID: 17125 Comm: syz-executor.0 Not tainted 6.1.155-syzkaller-00350-g84221fde2681 #0 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.12.0-1 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:0x0 Call Trace: <TASK> lookup_open.isra.0+0x700/0x1180 fs/namei.c:3460 open_last_lookups fs/namei.c:3550 [inline] path_openat+0x953/0x2700 fs/namei.c:3780 do_filp_open+0x1c5/0x410 fs/namei.c:3810 do_sys_openat2+0x171/0x4d0 fs/open.c:1318 do_sys_open fs/open.c:1334 [inline] __do_sys_openat fs/open.c:1350 [inline] __se_sys_openat fs/open.c:1345 [inline] __x64_sys_openat+0x13c/0x1f0 fs/open.c:1345 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:51 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x35/0x80 arch/x86/entry/common.c:81 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x6e/0xd8 Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Syzkaller.
