CVE-2026-45909
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: mediatek: Drop __initconst from gates
Since commit 8ceff24a754a ("clk: mediatek: clk-gate: Refactor mtk_clk_register_gate to use mtk_gate struct") the mtk_gate structs are no longer just used for initialization/registration, but also at runtime. So drop __initconst annotations.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 7.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.17%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 6
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1068Exploitation for Privilege Escalationprivilege escalation85 % - Impacto principal
T1059Command and Scripting Interpreterexecution75 % - Impacto secundario
T1499.004Application or System Exploitationimpact60 %
Vulnerabilidad de escalada de privilegios en kernel Linux (AV:L, PR:L). Uso incorrecto de __initconst permite manipulación de estructuras en runtime, facilitando ejecución de código o DoS con privilegios elevados.
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
