CVE-2026-80529

What the bug is

xlog_recover_dquot_commit_pass2() validates the recovered dquot with xfs_dqblk_verify() and, on failure, sets error = -EFSCORRUPTED and jumps to out_release. But out_release unconditionally returns 0, so the corruption error is discarded: the caller xlog_recover_items_pass2() sees success, log recovery proceeds as if the dquot were valid, and the corrupt quota buffer can be written back to disk.

Where it lives

The fix touches these files. If the subsystem is one you do not use, the practical exposure is lower, though the package is still the vulnerable one.

Kernel module

xfs

Check it on the machine

grep -w CONFIG_XFS_FS /boot/config-$(uname -r)

Reads the booted kernel's own configuration, on the machine and nowhere else. =y is built in, =m is a module, and an is not set line means the code is not there.

lsmod | grep -w xfs

Prints a line if that module is loaded right now, and nothing if it is not. One that is not loaded can still be loaded later by anything that needs it.

Show whether Debian builds this, per release

Debian builds this as a loadable module. Every release below compiles it as a module on every flavour, so whether the code is in the running kernel depends on whether that module is loaded.

Build switch

CONFIG_XFS_FS

From the configuration Debian publishes for every kernel flavour it builds. It covers only the architectures Debian ships a linux-config package for, and nothing about a kernel you built yourself.
