Vulnerability Details CVE-2026-43474
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs: init flags_valid before calling vfs_fileattr_get
syzbot reported a uninit-value bug in [1].
Similar to the "*get" context where the kernel's internal file_kattr
structure is initialized before calling vfs_fileattr_get(), we should
use the same mechanism when using fa.
