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-2026-90041 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-2026-90041/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-90041/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-90041","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-90041/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-90041","record":{"aliases":["AZL-101606","BELL-CVE-2026-90041","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-90041","GHSA-qh4f-62fc-9qxv","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-90041"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's Sony HID driver allows attackers to cause memory corruption or system crashes via specific device probe failures.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/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\nHID: sony: clean up device list on probe failure\n\nsony_input_configured() adds some controllers to sony_device_list before\nHID core registers their input devices. input_register_device() can fail\nafter the callback returns successfully. sony_probe() then observes that\nHID_CLAIMED_INPUT is clear and unwinds, but only stops the HID hardware.\nThe devres-managed sony_sc is freed while its list node remains linked, so\nthe next matching controller traverses freed memory.\n\nInitialize the list node and device ID to inactive states.
