{"id":"AZL-100361","summary":"CVE-2026-80980 affecting package kernel 6.6.150.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet/smc: stop killed, freed and out_of_sync sharing a byte\n\nThe three connection state flags are single-bit bitfields, so they occupy\none byte of struct smc_connection and every store to one is a\nread-modify-write of the other two:\n\n    u8  killed : 1;\n    u8  freed : 1;\n    u8  out_of_sync : 1;\n\nThey are not written under a common lock. smc_cdc_msg_validate() sets\nout_of_sync from the receive tasklet, while smc_conn_kill() sets killed\nfrom process context under lock_sock(), and the receive path does not defer\nto the backlog when the socket is owned -- smc_cdc_msg_recv() takes only\nbh_lock_sock().\n\nGive each flag its own byte so a store no longer touches its neighbours.\nAll readers test them as booleans and are unchanged. struct smc_connection\ngrows by two bytes.","modified":"2026-09-13T06:06:36Z","published":"2026-09-11T20:19:04Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-80980"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-80980"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"6.6.150.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-100361.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
