Vulnerability description

DayBreach CVE AI Research

CVE-2026-68094 has vendor, distribution, patch and security-source records on file. We can compare them and prepare an explanation linked to the evidence.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sched_ext: Preserve rq tracking across local DSQ dispatch dispatch_to_local_dsq() can run from scx_bpf_dsq_move_to_local() while ops.dispatch() has recorded the current rq. Moving a task to a local DSQ may switch to the source or destination rq before synchronously invoking ops.dequeue() through the following path: SCX_CALL_OP(dispatch, rq) ops.dispatch() scx_bpf_dsq_move_to_local() scx_flush_dispatch_buf() finish_dispatch() dispatch_to_local_dsq() scx_dispatch_enqueue() local_dsq_post_enq() call_task_dequeue() SCX_CALL_OP_TASK(dequeue, locked_rq, ...) The nested callback saves the recorded rq and restores it on return. If the rq tracking does not follow the lock switch, update_locked_rq() can trigger the following lockdep assertion while restoring an rq which is no longer held: WARNING: kernel/sched/sched.h:1641 at call_task_dequeue+0x160/0x170 Call Trace: scx_dispatch_enqueue+0x2b0/0x460 dispatch_to_local_dsq+0x138/0x230 scx_flush_dispatch_buf+0x1af/0x220 scx_bpf_dsq_move_to_local___v2+0xe2/0x1c0 bpf__sched_ext_ops_dispatch+0x4b/0xa7 do_pick_task_scx+0x3b6/0x910 __pick_next_task+0x105/0x1f0 __schedule+0x3e7/0x1980 Introduce switch_rq_lock() to update the tracking state together with each rq lock handoff. Use it in dispatch_to_local_dsq(), move_remote_task_to_local_dsq() and the in-balance paths of scx_dsq_move(), ensuring that scx_locked_rq() consistently refers to the rq whose lock is actually held throughout the lock dance.
