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-2026-98308 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-2026-98308/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98308/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-98308","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98308/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-98308","record":{"aliases":["AZL-106320","BELL-CVE-2026-98308","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-98308","GHSA-pq22-7f6j-hfpf","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-98308"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A null pointer dereference in the Linux kernel ALSA HDA driver can cause a system crash when hardware streams are exhausted.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"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\nALSA: hda: trace PCM open only after assigning a stream\n\nStream assignment can fail when hardware streams are exhausted.\nMove the tracepoint after the NULL check because its payload accesses\nthe assigned stream tag.\n\nDetected by static analysis and reviewed with AI-assisted source auditing.","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":"ALSA: hda: trace PCM open only after assigning a stream","id":"CVE-2026-98308","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"null_dereference","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"drm/vc4: Use managed KMS polling to fix UAF on unbind","id":"CVE-2026-98309"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"wifi: ath11k: cleanup arsta in ath11k_mac_peer_cleanup_all()","id":"CVE-2026-98307"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-10-06","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-19","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A null pointer dereference in the Linux kernel ALSA HDA driver can cause a system crash when hardware streams are exhausted.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98308/"}
