Last modified
CVE-2025-22074 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.5/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: fix r_count dec/increment mismatch r_count is only increased when there is an oplock break wait, so r_count inc/decrement are not paired. This can cause r_count to become negative, which can lead to a problem where the ksmbd thread does not terminate.. EPSS estimates a 0.17% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
