Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Improper control of a resource through its lifetime (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43007)

CWE-ID: CWE-664 - Improper control of a resource through its lifetime

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper state management in the qaic DBC deactivation handling when processing a device deactivation transaction after the owning user has exited. A local user can terminate the owning process and then request activation of a network to cause a denial of service.

The issue can leave the host out of sync with available DBCs, causing a subsequent user process to hang while waiting for the DBC to become unused.


Remediation
