CVE-2026-80535: Linux

EPSS: 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xfs: don't double-lock when deleting a self-referential directory LOLLM notices that the dirtree scrubber can detect a directory that refers to itself. In this case, it's not correct for the directory tree repair code to try to iolock/ilock both sc->ip and dp, because they're the same inode. Fix this by detecting that corner case and handling it appropriately.

Affected products

• Linux Linux: from 6.10, before 6.12.105 (fixed in 6.12.105); from 6.13, before 6.18.46 (fixed in 6.18.46); from 6.19, before 7.1.10 (fixed in 7.1.10)
