CVE-2026-68192

Estado: RecibidaAlta (8.8)—

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: brcmfmac: make release_scratchbuffers idempotent

brcmf_pcie_release_scratchbuffers() frees the shared.scratch and shared.ringupd DMA buffers with dma_free_coherent() but does not clear the pointers afterwards, unlike the sibling release_ringbuffers() which NULLs commonrings/flowrings/idxbuf on release.

Both the bus_reset .reset callback (brcmf_pcie_reset) and brcmf_pcie_remove() call release_scratchbuffers. When reset teardown has run before removal, remove's own teardown would call dma_free_coherent() a second time on the already-freed DMA allocation.

NULL the pointers after free, matching release_ringbuffers(), so a later release observes that the allocation has already been released. This patch makes repeated sequential release safe; the reset-work lifetime is handled separately by the following patch.

This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.

CVSS

Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)

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).
