## What is CVE-2026-93132?

CVE-2026-93132 is a vulnerability in Linux, published on 17 Sep 2026. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ACPI: RISC-V: Fix riscv_acpi_add_prt_dep() loop handling

The loop in riscv_acpi_add_prt_dep() includes error conditions that are
handled in a dubious - if not outright wrong - way, by continuining the
loop (which skips and misses the entry pointer update to point to the next
entry).

Rewrite the loop as a for loop (that handles the continuation correctly)
and wrap the condition and update statements using helper functions to make
it cleaner.

Check this codebase for CVE-2026-93132 and fix it if it is affected.

What it is: CVE-2026-93132 is a vulnerability in Linux, published on 17 Sep 2026. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.
Exploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-93132 in the wild and no public exploit code.

Affected product: Linux. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.

Task:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
