Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Incorrect calculation (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-98275)

CWE-ID: CWE-682 - Incorrect Calculation

CVSSv4: 0 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to leave RX overrun interrupts unacknowledged.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect interrupt acknowledgment bit selection in the Cortina Gemini Ethernet driver's gmac_irq() function when handling RX overrun interrupts. A local user can trigger RX overrun interrupt handling to leave RX overrun interrupts unacknowledged.

For GMAC0, the acknowledgment writes the GMAC1 overrun bit instead; for GMAC1, the shift leaves no bit set in the 32-bit register.


Remediation

Install update from vendor's website.
