What is CVE-2026-23002?

In the Linux kernel, a specific vulnerability related to sleepable contexts has been addressed. The issue arose from handling NULL pointer dereferences during data reading operations, which could potentially disrupt kernel stability. By utilizing the '__kernel_read()' function for file reading in sleepable contexts, this vulnerability has been resolved, leading to enhanced error handling and improved code maintenance. The patch simplifies the reading process by leveraging the kernel's standard file interface, allowing for a more robust approach to file data management. This enhancement improves the overall reliability of operations in kernel contexts while maintaining compatibility for non-sleepable situations.
