exploitation requires only ordinary file access on an existing network mount, not root or special capabilities.\nUI:N - No special victim interaction beyond normal file read/write operations on a mounted network filesystem; persistent automounts and server-driven workloads make mount-time interaction unnecessary for exploitation.\nS:U - Impact is kernel heap memory corruption within the same kernel security domain; it does not cross VM, container, or IOMMU boundaries.\nC:H - Use-after-free of a page-cache folio enables heap grooming and arbitrary kernel memory read primitives;
