# CVE-2026-53123: linux: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: md: wake raid456 reshape waiters before suspend... CVE-2026-53123 is fixed in 52 products on 1 platform, first by ALAS2023-2026-1894, released June 22, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine. - Web page: https://patchblox.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-53123 - Priority: Routine - CVSS: 5.5 (medium) - EPSS: 0.0012 - CISA KEV: not listed - Exploited (vendor report): no - Publicly disclosed: no - Published: Jun 22, 2026 ## Description In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: md: wake raid456 reshape waiters before suspend During raid456 reshape, direct IO across the reshape position can sleep in raid5_make_request() waiting for reshape progress while still holding an active_io reference. If userspace then freezes reshape and writes md/suspend_lo or md/suspend_hi, mddev_suspend() kills active_io and waits for all in-flight IO to drain. This can deadlock: the IO needs reshape progress to continue, but the reshape thread is already frozen, so the active_io reference is never dropped and suspend never completes. raid5_prepare_suspend() already wakes wait_for_reshape for dm-raid. Do the same for normal md suspend when reshape is already interrupted, so waiting raid456 IO can abort, drop its reference, and let suspend finish. The mdadm test tests/25raid456-reshape-deadlock reproduces the hang. ## Where it's fixed | Platform | Product | Fixed in | Fix | Released | |---|---|---|---|---| | Linux | bpftool6.12 amzn 2023 |
