Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-89598)
Summary
Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-89598). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: ssd1307fb: defer I2C transfers from damage callbacks
The fbdev damage callbacks may run from fbcon while printk has disabled
preemption. They currently update the display synchronously, which enters
the sleeping I2C transfer path from atomic context.
A complete report from an RK3566 system follows:
