CVE-2026-90383
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
misc: sgi-gru: remove interrupt-context page-table walks
The GRU TLB miss handler walks a process's page tables without holding page-table locks or a reference to the mapped page. It also uses a kernel page-table accessor on user page tables and supports only PMD-level large mappings on x86-64.
Remove the direct walker. Send interrupt faults directly to user polling mode so the existing call-OS fallback retries them in process context.
Remove the mmap-lock failure statistic that can no longer be incremented.
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: 0.18%
- 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).
