1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-64233)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: 5.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local privileged user to cause a use-after-free.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free in uvc_function_bind() and descriptor handling for extension unit list walks when binding the UVC gadget function while concurrently removing an extension unit configfs directory. A local privileged user can bind the function and race configfs extension removal to cause a use-after-free.

Exploitation requires the ability to mount configfs and write gadget UDC files.
