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-2026-80938 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux. 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-2026-80938/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-80938/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-80938","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-80938/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-80938","record":{"aliases":["AZL-100602","BELL-CVE-2026-80938","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-80938","GHSA-pv6c-cxx7-759w","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-80938"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A race condition in the mt7615 Wi-Fi driver causes a deadlock during suspend, leading to a denial of service for local attackers.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nwifi: mt76: mt7615: avoid waiting for mac work under the mt76 mutex\n\nmt7615_suspend() acquired the mt76 mutex and then called\ncancel_delayed_work_sync() on mac_work.  mt7615_mac_work() acquires the\nsame mutex via mt7615_mutex_acquire() at the top of the worker, so if\nmac_work is already running and blocked on the mutex, the suspend path\ndeadlocks waiting for the work it holds the mutex against.\n\nFlush scan_work and mac_work before taking the mutex, matching the\nsuspend paths in mt7921 and mt7925.  scan_work only takes the mt76\nspinlock, but moving it keeps the sequence consistent.
