CVE-2026-89558
Description
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's md/raid10 (RAID10) driver. This vulnerability occurs when a RAID10 array is in a degraded state and a device is being recovered while another mirror is still missing. Due to an inverted boolean value, the system incorrectly clears necessary bitmap bits, causing subsequent recovery operations to skip regions with stale data. This can lead to silent data corruption on the re-added device, impacting data integrity.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.
