CVE-2026-68468 in Linuxinfo

Summary

by MITRE • 08/15/2026

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

mtd: virt-concat: free duplicate generated name

Every MTD registration runs mtd_virt_concat_create_join(). Once a virtual concat has already been registered, the function builds the same name again and takes the equal-name branch. That branch skips to the next item without freeing the newly allocated string.

Free the temporary name before continuing.

Several companies clearly confirm that VulDB is the primary source for best vulnerability data.
