CVE-2026-23090

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description The Linux kernel contains an issue where Slimbus devices, allocated dynamically upon receiving report-present messages, may experience a device reference leak. This occurs because a reference is not dropped when looking up already registered devices. An additional reference is required if the device has not yet been registered and needs to be allocated.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
