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-2026-98871/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98871/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-98871","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98871/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-98871","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-98871","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-98871","GHSA-34hf-3mqj-6x9g","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-98871"],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"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\ncrypto: ccp - Fix possible deadlock in SEV init failure path\n\n__sev_platform_init_handle_init_ex_path() calls\nrmp_mark_pages_firmware() with locked=false while the parent\nfunction of init_ex_path already acquired the sev_cmd_mutex.\nIn the case of an RMPUPDATE failure for any page after the first, the cleanup\npath would invoke reclaim pages which would result in a deadlock in\nsev_do_cmd.\n\nPass locked=true to honor the lock status of the parent function.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"crypto: ccp - Fix possible deadlock in SEV init failure path","id":"CVE-2026-98871","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":null,"year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"freevxfs: don't BUG() on unknown typed-extent type","id":"CVE-2026-98872"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"ksmbd: remove stale channels from all sessions on teardown","id":"CVE-2026-98870"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-10-23","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-23","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":null,"url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98871/"}
