In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI/DOE: Fix destroy_work_on_stack() race
The following debug object splat was observed in testing:
ODEBUG: free active (active state 0) object: 0000000097d23782 object type: work_struct hint: doe_statemachine_work+0x0/0x510
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 71 at lib/debugobjects.c:514 debug_print_object+0x7d/0xb0
...
Workqueue: pci 0000:36:00.0 DOE [1 doe_statemachine_work
RIP: 0010:debug_print_object+0x7d/0xb0
...
Call Trace:
? debug_print_object+0x7d/0xb0
? __pfx_doe_statemachine_work+0x10/0x10
debug_object_free.part.0+0x11b/0x150
doe_statemachine_work+0x45e/0x510
process_one_work+0x1d4/0x3c0
This occurs because destroy_work_on_stack() was called after signaling
the completion in the calling thread. This creates a race between
destroy_work_on_stack() and the task->work struct going out of scope in
pci_doe().
Signal the work complete after destroying the work struct. This is safe
because signal_task_complete() is the final thing the work item does and
the workqueue code is careful not to access the work struct after.
What the EG score is made of (scorer v4.0: the three questions the 0–10 score mixes, published apart · methodology)
- EG Severity
- Not assessed: no CVSS publishedA missing CVSS is not a severity of zero.
- EG Likelihood
- 0.2% within 30 daysSource: FIRST EPSS (model v2026.06.15, score date 2026-10-28). FIRST's exploitation probability, not an EchelonGraph model.
- Confirmed exploitation
- None on record (CISA KEV, EG-KEV Tier 1)Reported apart from the likelihood: an observed fact, not a probability.

BOD 26-04 (CISA's remediation timeline, Table 1)14 days if the affected system is publicly exposed; Fix on system upgrade if it is not.
The score's inputs: In CISA KEV no (CISA's KEV catalog) · Automatable no (CISA's BOD 26-04 default) · Technical impact total (CISA's BOD 26-04 default). Where an input reads “CISA's BOD 26-04 default”, no one has published it for this CVE, and CISA's implementation guidance says: “If “Automatable” and “Technical Impact” information items about a CVE ID are not available and the CVE ID is not in the KEV Catalog, CISA will treat its values as “no” and “total,” respectively, until CISA or a third party provides metadata about the CVE ID. CISA will always provide the Vulnrichment data for a CVE ID listed in the KEV Catalog.” Whether your system is publicly exposed is yours to answer. BOD 26-04 binds US Federal Civilian Executive Branch agencies; for anyone else it is CISA's published timeline, a reference rather than an obligation. The directive · how EchelonGraph applies it
