Overview

CVE-2026-53327 is a medium-severity vulnerability. It was published on July 1, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.5 (MEDIUM).

Technical description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

debugobjects: Do not fill_pool() if pi_blocked_on

On RT enabled kernels, fill_pool() ends up calling rtlock_lock(), which

asserts if current::pi_blocked_on is set, because a task can obviously only

block on one lock as otherwise the priority inheritenace chain gets

corrupted.

Prevent this by expanding the conditional to take current::pi_blocked_on

into account.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
