CVE-2026-80521

CVE-2026-80521 is a use-after-free in the Linux kernel's af_unix subsystem, specifically in the garbage collection (GC) logic for strongly connected components (SCC). A race in unix_del_edge() allows the GC to free a dead SCC partially when a concurrent send() of a socket and close() of other soc...
