CVE-2026-89602
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: erofs: skip sufficiently large global buffers when resizing z_erofs_gbuf_nrpages is advanced only after every global buffer has been grown. If a resize fails after some buffers were enlarged, a retry revisits those enlarged buffers. Retrying the same size then returns -ENOMEM because alloc_pages_bulk() has no pages to add and the unchanged return value is treated as a failure. Retrying an intermediate size allocates a temporary pointer array smaller than gbuf->nrpages and copies more existing pointers than the array can hold. Skip buffers that already satisfy the request. Once all remaining buffers have caught up, advancing z_erofs_gbuf_nrpages again describes the guaranteed minimum size across the pool.

Affected products and versions
NVD has not supplied machine-readable vulnerable CPE product/version entries for this CVE. This is an information gap, not proof that no products are affected. Check the vendor advisory references below.
Remediation & validation
- Identify exposure by comparing the affected product and version ranges with your asset inventory, SBOM and externally exposed services.
- Review the linked vendor security advisory or patch notes. Upgrade to a vendor-confirmed fixed release; do not infer a fixed version from the CVE description.
- Until patched, consider restricting network access or disabling the affected feature where operationally safe. These are temporary controls, not a substitute for a vendor fix.
- Validate the remediation with a version check and vulnerability rescan, then retain change evidence.
No fixed version is displayed unless it is explicitly established by a vendor advisory. Follow the vendor's release notes for exact product and branch applicability.
