Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-90025)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
CVSSv4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in the UCSI DisplayPort driver's port altmode array when processing an invalid GET_CURRENT_CAM response from the PPM. A remote attacker can cause the PPM to return an altmode array index above UCSI_MAX_ALTMODES to cause a denial of service.
Remediation
Install update from vendor's website.
