CVE-2026-46095 PUBLISHED

md/md-llbitmap: raise barrier before state machine transition

Assigner: Linux
Reserved: 13.05.2026 Published: 27.05.2026 Updated: 27.05.2026

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

md/md-llbitmap: raise barrier before state machine transition

Move the barrier raise operation before calling llbitmap_state_machine() in both llbitmap_start_write() and llbitmap_start_discard(). This ensures the barrier is in place before any state transitions occur, preventing potential race conditions where the state machine could complete before the barrier is properly raised.
