It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-23188 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux kernel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-23188/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-23188/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-23188","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-23188/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-23188","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-23188","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-23188","GHSA-hjjf-xjvr-567j","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-13-CVE-2026-23188","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-23188"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A deadlock in the r8152 USB network driver during device resume can cause a system panic, requiring a kernel patch to fix.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-667","name":"Improper Locking"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet: usb: r8152: fix resume reset deadlock\n\nrtl8152 can trigger device reset during reset which\npotentially can result in a deadlock:\n\n **** DPM device timeout after 10 seconds; 15 seconds until panic ****\n Call Trace:\n \u003cTASK\u003e\n schedule+0x483/0x1370\n schedule_preempt_disabled+0x15/0x30\n __mutex_lock_common+0x1fd/0x470\n __rtl8152_set_mac_address+0x80/0x1f0\n dev_set_mac_address+0x7f/0x150\n rtl8152_post_reset+0x72/0x150\n usb_reset_device+0x1d0/0x220\n rtl8152_resume+0x99/0xc0\n usb_resume_interface+0x3e/0xc0\n usb_resume_both+0x104/0x150\n usb_resume+0x22/0x110\n\nThe problem is that rtl8152 resume calls reset under\ntp-\u003econtrol mutex while reset basically re-enters rtl8152\nand attempts to acquire the same tp-\u003econtrol lock once\nagain.\n\nReset INACCESSIBLE device outside of tp-\u003econtrol mutex\nscope to avoid recursive mutex_lock() deadlock.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"net: usb: r8152: fix resume reset deadlock","id":"CVE-2026-23188","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"race_condition","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"ceph: fix NULL pointer dereference in ceph_mds_auth_match()","id":"CVE-2026-23189"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"pmdomain: imx8m-blk-ctrl: fix out-of-range access of bc-\u003edomains","id":"CVE-2026-23187"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-02-14","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Out-of-Bounds Write","id":"CVE-2026-53266","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2026-06-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2013-6282","kev_date_added":"2022-09-15","published":"2013-11-19"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Linux Kernel Heap-Based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2022-0185","kev_date_added":"2024-08-21","published":"2022-02-11"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Linux Kernel Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2013-2094","kev_date_added":"2022-09-15","published":"2013-05-14"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Unspecified","id":"CVE-2026-53362","kev_date_added":"2026-08-27","published":"2026-07-04"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Missing Initialization of a Variable","id":"CVE-2026-46300","kev_date_added":"2026-10-28","published":"2026-05-23"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Race Condition","id":"CVE-2025-39964","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2025-10-13"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-11","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A deadlock in the r8152 USB network driver during device resume can cause a system panic, requiring a kernel patch to fix.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-23188/"}
