LIN1025-17031 : Security Advisory - linux - CVE-2026-64001

Created: Aug 1, 2026    Updated: Aug 11, 2026
Found In Version: 10.25.33.2
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 25
Component/s: Kernel

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  ALSA: pcm: oss: Fix setup list UAF on proc write error  snd_pcm_oss_proc_write() links a newly allocated setup entry into the OSS setup list before duplicating the task name. If the task-name allocation fails, the error path frees the already linked entry and leaves setup_list pointing at freed memory.  A later OSS device open can then walk the stale list entry in snd_pcm_oss_look_for_setup() and dereference freed memory.  Allocate the task name and initialize the setup entry before publishing the entry on setup_list. Also fetch the initial proc read iterator only after taking setup_mutex, so all setup_list traversal follows the same list lifetime rules.
