Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-90026)

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 compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free in the Qualcomm PMIC Type-C PD PHY driver's reset_work handling when pending reset_work executes after device removal frees its associated structure. A local user can trigger the race condition to compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

The race requires the IRQ handler to schedule reset_work immediately before IRQs are disabled.
