{"id":"AZL-99963","summary":"CVE-2026-80920 affecting package kernel 6.6.150.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nio_uring: defer eventfd signaling when queued from a wakeup handler\n\nio_req_local_work_add() signals the CQ ring eventfd inline when it is the\none to push the first entry onto -\u003ework_list. For DEFER_TASKRUN rings that\nadd is frequently done from a waitqueue wakeup handler, where an\narbitrary waitqueue lock is held.\n\neventfd_signal_mask() only refuses to recurse when current-\u003ein_eventfd\nis set, but that bit is set by eventfd_signal_mask() itself. If the wake\nchain starts somewhere else, signal goes out inline and can feed back\ninto epoll.\n\nAdd IOU_F_TWQ_IN_WAKE, set it on the task_work add done from the three\nwaitqueue callbacks, and use it to force io_eventfd_signal() down the\nexisting call_rcu_hurry() deferral instead of signaling inline.","modified":"2026-09-10T14:16:50.018988322Z","published":"2026-09-09T17:17:47Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-80920"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-80920"}],"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-99963.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
