Missing Release of Resource after Effective Lifetime in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-68333

Vulnerability identifier: #VU141721

CSH Severity: Low

CVSS v4: 4.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

CVE-ID: CVE-2026-68333

CWE-ID: CWE-772

Exploitation vector: Local access

Exploit availability: No public exploit available

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper release of a resource in dpaa2_switch_port_disconnect_mac in the dpaa2-switch driver when disconnecting a MAC endpoint device. A local user can repeatedly connect and disconnect the MAC endpoint to cause a denial of service.
