This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-80654)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: 8.5 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerability exists due to use-after-free in the rx mailbox channel handling in drivers/soc/xilinx/zynqmp_power.c when processing mailbox messages after device removal. A local user can trigger message delivery to the stale channel to execute arbitrary code.

The issue occurs because the receive mailbox channel may remain active after the device is removed.
