Improper control of a resource through its lifetime in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-93185

Published: September 18, 2026


Vulnerability identifier: #VU150814
CSH Severity: Low
CVSS v4: 0 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
CVE-ID: CVE-2026-93185
CWE-ID: CWE-664
Exploitation vector: Local access
Exploit availability: No public exploit available

Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a local privileged user to cause active timer or work objects to remain after device removal.

The vulnerability exists due to improper cancellation of delayed work in rt700_sdw_remove() when removing an RT700 SoundWire codec after the SoundWire slave becomes unattached while jack work is pending. A local privileged user can cause the remove path to skip cancellation of pending jack work.

Practical reachability depends on SoundWire core remove ordering after an unattached status update.
