CVE-2026-23176

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

Description The Linux kernel contains memory leaks within the toshiba haps driver related to the toshiba haps add() and toshiba haps remove() routines. The toshiba haps add() function leaks memory allocated for the haps object if an error occurs after successful allocation. The toshiba haps remove() function fails to free memory pointed to by toshiba haps before clearing the pointer, resulting in unreachable allocated memory. These issues are addressed by utilizing devm kzalloc() for memory allocation.

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