CVSS Meta Temp Score CVSS is a standardized scoring system to determine possibilities of attacks. The Temp Score considers temporal factors like disclosure, exploit and countermeasures. The unique Meta Score calculates the average score of different sources to provide a normalized scoring system.	Current Exploit Price (≈) Our analysts are monitoring exploit markets and are in contact with vulnerability brokers. The range indicates the observed or calculated exploit price to be seen on exploit markets. A good indicator to understand the monetary effort required for and the popularity of an attack.	CTI Interest Score Our Cyber Threat Intelligence team is monitoring different web sites, mailing lists, exploit markets and social media networks. The CTI Interest Score identifies the interest of attackers and the security community for this specific vulnerability in real-time. A high score indicates an elevated risk to be targeted for this vulnerability.

Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as very critical has been found in Linux Kernel up to 6.12.104/6.18.45/7.1.9. This affects the function xrep_iunlink_walk_ondisk_bucket of the component XFS. The manipulation of the argument agi_bp with an unknown input leads to a buffer overflow vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-120. The product copies an input buffer to an output buffer without verifying that the size of the input buffer is less than the size of the output buffer, leading to a buffer overflow. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xfs: don't walk off the end of a null sc->sa.agi_bp in AGI repair LOLLM noticed a longstanding bug where xrep_iunlink_walk_ondisk_bucket tries to walk ragi->sc->sa.agi_bp to rebuild the unlinked inode lists. Unfortunately, it's possible for agi_bp to be null if the buffer verifier fails, so we have to use ragi->agi_bp (which skips verifier checks) instead.

The advisory is shared at git.kernel.org. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2026-80533 since 08/26/2026. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. Technical details are known, but no exploit is available. The price for an exploit might be around USD $5k-$25k at the moment (estimation calculated on 08/26/2026).

Upgrading to version 6.12.105, 6.18.46 or 7.1.10 eliminates this vulnerability. Applying the patch 43b4ecbc948a2e441804c9d7b772deb6b2e44e3d/c36d7f68f1c2e7e528ad11044a0bd6a3016a6a03/a6cfd0e4bb1e5f4dd2a67fa99eab36bda47cf081/1e96a00e0d3a00be6e4f368b2f18e2d345f813ce is able to eliminate this problem.
