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-2026-90137 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-2026-90137/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-90137/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-90137","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-90137/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-90137","record":{"aliases":["AZL-102794","BELL-CVE-2026-90137","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-90137","GHSA-4794-7h5r-v2rf","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-90137"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A missing bounds check in the HP BIOS configuration driver allows reading out-of-bounds memory, potentially causing information disclosure or system crashes.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.7,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nplatform/x86: hp-bioscfg: fix password encoding bounds check\n\nThe password PSWD_ENCODINGS parser reads password_obj[elem + pos_values]\nwhile copying the supported password encodings from the ACPI package.\n\nThe outer loop only guarantees that elem is within password_obj_count.\nThe encoding count is bounded by MAX_ENCODINGS_SIZE, but that does not\nguarantee that the ACPI package contains enough entries for all\nelem + pos_values accesses.\n\nA malformed package can therefore declare a non-zero encoding count\nwithout providing enough string objects, causing the parser to read past\nthe ACPI package array and pass an out-of-bounds string pointer and\nlength to hp_convert_hexstr_to_str().\n\nAdd the same computed-index bounds check used by the other offset-based\npackage parsing loops before reading password_obj[elem + pos_values].","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":"platform/x86: hp-bioscfg: fix password encoding bounds check","id":"CVE-2026-90137","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"vsock: don't check the listener's sk_err in vsock_accept()","id":"CVE-2026-90138"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"platform/x86/amd/hsmp: Reject negative power cap writes in hwmon","id":"CVE-2026-90136"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-09-17","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 missing bounds check in the HP BIOS configuration driver allows reading out-of-bounds memory, potentially causing information disclosure or system crashes.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-90137/"}
