      <title>CVE-2026-53361 — af_unix: Set gc_in_progress to true in unix_gc().</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-53361</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;af_unix: Set gc_in_progress to true in unix_gc().&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Igor Ushakov reported that unix_gc() could run with gc_in_progress
being false if the work is scheduled while running:&lt;/p&gt;
