It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-31455 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux kernel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-31455/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-31455/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-31455","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-31455/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-31455","record":{"aliases":["AZL-83207","BELL-CVE-2026-31455","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-31455","GHSA-q892-7mjj-mjx9","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2026-31455","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2026-31455","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-13-CVE-2026-31455","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2026-31455","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2026-31455","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-31455"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A race condition in the Linux kernel XFS filesystem during unmount can lead to use-after-free, potentially allowing code execution or system crashes.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-416","name":"Use After Free"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nxfs: stop reclaim before pushing AIL during unmount\n\nThe unmount sequence in xfs_unmount_flush_inodes() pushed the AIL while\nbackground reclaim and inodegc are still running.
