In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xfs: don't irele after failing to iget in xfs_attri_recover_work xlog_recovery_iget* never set @ip to a valid pointer if they return an error, so this irele will walk off a dangling pointer. Fix that.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - xfs: don't irele after failing to iget in xfs_attri_recover_work xlog_recovery_iget* never set @ip to a     valid pointer if they return an error, so this irele will walk off a dangling pointer. Fix that.
    (CVE-2026-43063)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
