Use-after-free in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-90395
Published: September 18, 2026
Vulnerability details
The vulnerability allows a local privileged user to access freed power supply state.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free in the isp1704 charger driver's remove path when queued or running work executes during device removal. A local privileged user can cause work scheduled by USB notification or initial VBUS detection to execute after the power supply state is torn down to access freed power supply state.
