It does\nnot guarantee that the worker is currently executing a work item, as\nworker->current_pwq is populated only while process_one_work() is running\nthe work function.\n\nis_chained_work() can be reached while queueing on a draining or\ndestroying workqueue. If a kworker outside work-item execution reaches\nthat path, current_wq_worker() returns a worker but worker->current_pwq is\nNULL, and the chained-work test can fault before it emits the intended\nwarning.\n\nGuard the chained-work test with worker->current_pwq. A kworker without\ncurrent_pwq is not executing work on the target workqueue, so the helper\nshould return false and let the draining/destroying warning fire.","score":null,"severity":"unknown","published":"2026-10-23T12:22:45.920Z","modified":"2026-10-30T12:41:24.511Z","withdrawn":false,"knownExploited":false,"affected":[],"products":[{"vendor":"Linux","name":"Linux","platforms":[],"versions":[{"version":"8d03ecfe471802d6afe97da97722b6924533aa82","status":"affected","lessThan":"73bec442f913855907b63225306dd162c18e5c71","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8d03ecfe471802d6afe97da97722b6924533aa82","status":"affected","lessThan":"6877de2c75f0dd342099a1357856e6c8d474abc3","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8d03ecfe471802d6afe97da97722b6924533aa82","status":"affected","lessThan":"54361e4924c2c52a501b74ef10217c32f45fccfa","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8d03ecfe471802d6afe97da97722b6924533aa82","status":"affected","lessThan":"3dc61af2998cfc7312d6e59bbdcd5eed074483f2","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8d03ecfe471802d6afe97da97722b6924533aa82","status":"affected","lessThan":"729d576df89c7e4341e58c452f8890620a610ac2","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8d03ecfe471802d6afe97da97722b6924533aa82","status":"affected","lessThan":"b12a25fb2b9d5dac80e419d695450cc17a51fdfd","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8d03ecfe471802d6afe97da97722b6924533aa82","status":"affected","lessThan":"1a2668682e998039a027796b236319b380078a6a","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8d03ecfe471802d6afe97da97722b6924533aa82","status":"affected","lessThan":"980db94e3eeefdd8a1c46f86412c33a7f7806f51","versionType":"git"}],"defaultStatus":"unaffected","cpes":[],"source":"Linux","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-99058"},{"vendor":"Linux","name":"Linux","platforms":[],"versions":[{"version":"3.9","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","status":"unaffected","lessThan":"3.9","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.10.273","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"5.10.*","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.15.224","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"5.15.*","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.191","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.160","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.113","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.57","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2.11","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"7.2.*","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.3","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"*","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}],"defaultStatus":"affected","cpes":[],"source":"Linux","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-99058"}],"remediation":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/73bec442f913855907b63225306dd162c18e5c71","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6877de2c75f0dd342099a1357856e6c8d474abc3","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/54361e4924c2c52a501b74ef10217c32f45fccfa","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3dc61af2998cfc7312d6e59bbdcd5eed074483f2","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/729d576df89c7e4341e58c452f8890620a610ac2","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b12a25fb2b9d5dac80e419d695450cc17a51fdfd","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1a2668682e998039a027796b236319b380078a6a","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/980db94e3eeefdd8a1c46f86412c33a7f7806f51"],"sources":[{"name":"CVE","id":"CVE-2026-99058","modified":"2026-10-30T12:41:24.511Z","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-99058"}],"assessments":[],"sourceAffected":[],"observedAt":"2026-10-30T13:11:32.806Z","kev":{"status":"not-listed","checkedAt":"2026-11-14T23:40:32.333Z"},"coverage":[{"source":"NVD","status":"not-checked"},{"source":"GHSA","status":"not-checked"},{"source":"EUVD","status":"not-checked"},{"source":"EPSS","status":"not-checked"}],"evidence":[],"aiSummary":null}
