CVE-2026-80727
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/mce: Set up the polling timer before CMCI discovery
I hit the following on one of my machines:
A second splat follows right after, from timer_setup() finding that same timer already queued:
This is happening because CMCI storm detection is trying to modify the timer before latter was properly set up.
Set up the timer first. __mcheck_cpu_setup_timer() only calls timer_setup(), and depends on neither the generic nor the vendor init.
