Use-after-free in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-43426

Published: May 8, 2026


Vulnerability identifier: #VU130760
CSH Severity: Low
CVSS v4: 5.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43426
CWE-ID: CWE-416
Exploitation vector: Local access
Exploit availability: No public exploit available

Vulnerability details

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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free in the renesas_usbhs interrupt handler when handling an interrupt during device removal. A local user can trigger device removal while an interrupt is pending to cause a denial of service.

The issue occurs in a race window after driver resources have been freed but before the driver is fully unbound.
