CVE-2026-80535

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description An issue exists in the XFS file system where the dirtree scrubber can detect a directory that refers to itself. In such cases, the directory tree repair code incorrectly attempts to apply both iolock and ilock to sc->ip and dp simultaneously. Because these variables refer to the same inode, this results in a double-lock scenario.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
