In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
9p: fix access mode flags being ORed instead of replaced
Since commit 1f3e4142c0eb ("9p: convert to the new mount API"),
v9fs_apply_options() applies parsed mount flags with |= onto flags
already set by v9fs_session_init(). For 9P2000.L, session_init sets
V9FS_ACCESS_CLIENT as the default, so when the user mounts with
"access=user", both bits end up set. Access mode checks compare
against exact values, so having both bits set matches neither mode.
This causes v9fs_fid_lookup() to fall through to the default switch
case, using INVALID_UID (nobody/65534) instead of current_fsuid()
for all fid lookups. Root is then unable to chown or perform other
privileged operations.
Fix by clearing the access mask before applying the user's choice.

Title: Linux kernel (OEM) vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.
It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly handle shared page
fragments during socket buffer operations, collectively known as Dirty
Frag. A logic flaw existed in the XFRM ESP-in-TCP subsystem and in the
RxRPC networking subsystem when processing paged fragments. A local
attacker could use this to escalate privileges, or possibly escape a
container. (CVE-2026-43284, CVE-2026-43500, CVE-2026-45998, CVE-2026-46000)
It was discovered that a logic flaw existed in the XFRM ESP-in-TCP

CVE-2026-52906 CWE-266 kernel: 9p: fix access mode flags being ORed instead of replaced
kernel: 9p: fix access mode flags being ORed instead of replaced
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's 9p filesystem. When mounting, access mode flags were incorrectly combined instead of being replaced, leading to an invalid configuration. This issue causes root users to be unable to perform privileged operations like changing file ownership, effectively degrading their privileges and causing a denial of service for these specific actions.
