Out-of-bounds read in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-90314
Published: September 18, 2026
Vulnerability details
The vulnerability allows a local user to read memory out of bounds.
The vulnerability exists due to improper signedness handling in rsc_table_for_each_entry() when processing a firmware resource table. A local user can provide a crafted firmware resource table containing an offset interpreted as negative to read memory out of bounds.
