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-2026-90305 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-2026-90305/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-90305/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-90305","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-90305/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-90305","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2026-90305","GHSA-8p49-rxqc-9388","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-90305"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A missing kernel configuration on ARM PREEMPT_RT systems causes a kernel panic when CPU timers expire, leading to local denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nARM: 9483/1: select HAVE_POSIX_CPU_TIMERS_TASK_WORK\n\nCommit c6e61c06d606 (\"ARM: 9463/1: Allow to enable RT\") enabled PREEMPT_RT\non ARM but did not select HAVE_POSIX_CPU_TIMERS_TASK_WORK.
