CVE-2026-53035

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

bpf, sockmap: Fix af_unix iter deadlock

bpf_iter_unix_seq_show() may deadlock when lock_sock_fast() takes the fast
path and the iter prog attempts to update a sockmap. Which ends up spinning
at sock_map_update_elem()'s bh_lock_sock():

WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
test_progs/1393 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff88811ec25f58 (slock-AF_UNIX){+...}-{3:3}, at: sock_map_update_elem+0xdb/0x1f0

but task is already holding lock:
ffff88811ec25f58 (slock-AF_UNIX){+...}-{3:3}, at: __lock_sock_fast+0x37/0xe0

other info that might help us debug this:
 Possible unsafe locking scenario:
