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-2026-89523 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux. 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-2026-89523/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-89523/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-89523","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-89523/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-89523","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-89523","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-89523","GHSA-2cmm-rm3g-hc7x","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-89523"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the mt7925 Wi-Fi driver allows attackers to cause system crashes or potentially execute code during device reset or suspend operations.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nwifi: mt76: mt7925: cancel pending mlo_pm_work\n\nIf the device is reset, suspended or unregistered within that window,\nthe pending work can still run and access vif/bss data that may already\nbe freed, or send MCU commands while the firmware is not available.\n\nAdd cancel_delayed_work_sync(\u0026dev-\u003emlo_pm_work) in all relevant teardown\nand suspend paths:\n\n - mt7925_mac_reset_work()        (chip reset recovery)\n - mt7925e_unregister_device()    (PCIe unbind)\n - mt7925_pci_suspend()           (PCIe bus suspend)\n - mt7925_suspend()               (mac80211 suspend)\n - mt7925u_suspend()              (USB bus / runtime suspend)\n\nThis ensures the work is stopped before the device state becomes\ninvalid.","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":"wifi: mt76: mt7925: cancel pending mlo_pm_work","id":"CVE-2026-89523","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"wifi: ath6kl: clamp assoc request/response lengths before subtracting IE offsets","id":"CVE-2026-89524"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"media: staging/ipu7: fix async notifier UAF on probe error path","id":"CVE-2026-89522"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-09-11","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-19","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the mt7925 Wi-Fi driver allows attackers to cause system crashes or potentially execute code during device reset or suspend operations.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-89523/"}
