In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ocfs2: o2hb: quiesce negotiate handlers and timeout work Heartbeat regions publish struct o2hb_region as the private data for the NEGO_TIMEOUT and NEGO_APPROVE o2net handlers as soon as make_item() creates the configfs region. The approve handler can call o2hb_arm_timeout(), so a peer can touch the region timeout work before dev_store() has finished building the heartbeat runtime, or after teardown has started to shut that runtime back down. The final configfs put also has to keep reg alive until the last in-flight o2net callback drops its handler reference. o2net_unregister_handler_list() blocks future handler lookups, but it does not wait for sc_rx_work that already passed o2net_handler_get(). That drain needs to cover local listener teardown as well, where the o2net ordered workqueue may already be inside destroy_workqueue(). Fix the lifetime rule in both directions. Initialize the region delayed works before publishing reg through the o2net handler table, keep new or stopping regions non-armable with hr_stopping, and quiesce both delayed works on failed-start and teardown paths even when no heartbeat th

What it means for a small business

Linux is on the computers, phones or browsers your team uses every day. Turn on automatic updates and restart: most of these fixes only take effect after a restart.

How likely is an attack? The Exploit Prediction Scoring System, run by FIRST (the global association of security response teams), puts the odds of this one being exploited in the next 30 days at 0.55%, higher than 46% of CVEs. That’s low, but low isn’t zero, and the odds jump the day someone publishes an exploit. Scored October 28, 2026, updated daily.

Check your own setup

  • Website check: reads what your site runs from the outside (WordPress version, plugins it can see, old server software) and matches it against this database.
  • Server check: what your web server says about itself, and whether that version has known flaws.
