CVE-2026-97418 in Linux
Riassunto
di MITRE • 24/09/2026
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: es18xx: check control allocation before private data setup
snd_es18xx_mixer() creates controls with snd_ctl_new1() and then stores bookkeeping pointers or sets private_free before calling snd_ctl_add(). snd_ctl_new1() can return NULL on allocation failure, so those writes can dereference a NULL control pointer.
Check the returned control pointers before using them and return -ENOMEM on allocation failure.
