Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-90068)
Summary
Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-90068). 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:
ASoC: dapm: Fix off-by-one check on the second enum channel
The snd_soc_dapm_put_enum_double() rejects item[0] once it reaches
e->items, but it lets item[1] be equal to it. Both go on to
snd_soc_enum_item_to_val(), which indexes e->values with no bound of
its own, so an enum with a value table reads one element past the end.
The indexing arrived with the MUX consolidation, which relaxed the
item[1] check in the same hunk. The value MUX handler it deleted used
= there, and the snd_soc_put_enum_double() in soc-ops.c still does.
Only adav80x pairs a value table with two shifts, and its second
channel looks accidental, but the control does report two values.
Writing three into it reads off the end of adav80x_mux_values. The
core catches that only under CONFIG_SND_CTL_INPUT_VALIDATION, which
defaults off.

CVE-2026-90068 (Linux kernel)
Plan: 1) Audit SBOM/dependencies, 2) Stage→prod upgrade, 3) Add WAF/proxy monitoring on affected endpoints, 4) Hunt IOCs in logs.
Refs: see the GHSA / vendor advisory / patched release linked on this page.
A vulnerability (unclassified) exists in Linux kernel.
Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of Linux kernel.
Severity: ?. Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure.
Update to the patched release per vendor advisory.
Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.
Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual request patterns matching this CVE's known IOCs. Audit SBOM/dependencies to find affected services.
