CVE-2026-74613: vsock/virtio: avoid refilling the RX queue after teardown
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock/virtio: avoid refilling the RX queue after teardown
Commit b917507e5ad9 ("vsock/virtio: stop workers during the .remove()")
made the RX worker jump to its common exit when rx_run is clear. That
exit still refills the RX queue when the buffer count is low, so work
queued across virtio_vsock_vqs_del() can add buffers after the virtqueues
have been deleted.

to replenish a running queue.
