CVE-2026-23053

Published Feb 4, 2026 EPSS 0.17% (6th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2026-23053 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on February 4, 2026.

Technical Description

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

NFS: Fix a deadlock involving nfs_release_folio()

Wang Zhaolong reports a deadlock involving NFSv4.1 state recovery

waiting on kthreadd, which is attempting to reclaim memory by calling

nfs_release_folio(). The latter cannot make progress due to state

recovery being needed.

It seems that the only safe thing to do here is to kick off a writeback

of the folio, without waiting for completion, or else kicking off an

asynchronous commit.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
