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-2026-43127 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-2026-43127/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-43127/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-43127","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-43127/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-43127","record":{"aliases":["AZL-85797","BELL-CVE-2026-43127","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-43127","GHSA-pmpx-w3f2-x2vp","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2026-43127","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2026-43127","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-13-CVE-2026-43127","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2026-43127","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2026-43127","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-43127"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A circular locking dependency in the Linux kernel ntfs3 driver can cause a deadlock, leading to a denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-667","name":"Improper Locking"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nntfs3: fix circular locking dependency in run_unpack_ex\n\nSyzbot reported a circular locking dependency between wnd-\u003erw_lock\n(sbi-\u003eused.bitmap) and ni-\u003efile.run_lock.\n\nThe deadlock scenario:\n1. ntfs_extend_mft() takes ni-\u003efile.run_lock then wnd-\u003erw_lock.\n2. run_unpack_ex() takes wnd-\u003erw_lock then tries to acquire\n   ni-\u003efile.run_lock inside ntfs_refresh_zone().\n\nThis creates an AB-BA deadlock.\n\nFix this by using down_read_trylock() instead of down_read() when\nacquiring run_lock in run_unpack_ex().
