Out-of-bounds read in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-31776

Vulnerability identifier: #VU128926

CSH Severity: Low

CVSS v4: 6.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

CVE-ID: CVE-2026-31776

CWE-ID: CWE-125

Exploitation vector: Local access

Exploit availability: No public exploit available

The vulnerability allows a local attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to out-of-bounds array access in daio_device_index() for the ALSA ctxfi hw20k2 SPDIF1 DAIO type when handling a crafted device type. A local attacker can trigger the vulnerable code path to cause a denial of service.
