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-2026-97509 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-2026-97509/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-97509/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-97509","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-97509/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-97509","record":{"aliases":["AZL-103547","BELL-CVE-2026-97509","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-97509","GHSA-mm3q-r4c7-69f3","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-97509"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel Thunderbolt driver allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or escalate privileges.","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\nthunderbolt: Keep XDomain reference during the lifetime of a service\n\nThis is needed because we release the service ID in tb_service_release()\nand the ID array is owned by the parent XDomain.","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":"thunderbolt: Keep XDomain reference during the lifetime of a service","id":"CVE-2026-97509","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"thunderbolt: Release request if tb_cfg_request() fails in __tb_xdomain_response()","id":"CVE-2026-97510"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"thunderbolt: Set tb-\u003eroot_switch to NULL when domain is stopped","id":"CVE-2026-97508"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-09-24","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":"2026-10-03","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel Thunderbolt driver allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or escalate privileges.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-97509/"}
