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-2026-98662 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-2026-98662/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98662/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-98662","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98662/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-98662","record":{"aliases":["AZL-108587","BELL-CVE-2026-98662","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-98662","GHSA-5vf6-9cv6-xwcm","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-98662"],"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 driver","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"A use-after-free in the Linux kernel gp2ap020a00f driver allows local attackers to execute code or escalate privileges via race conditions during device removal.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"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\niio: light: gp2ap020a00f: drain irq_work after free_irq\n\nThe threaded IRQ handler queues data-\u003ework through irq_work_queue() so\nthe trigger is polled from a per-CPU context.  free_irq() does not flush\nan irq_work the handler already queued, so after gp2ap020a00f_remove()\nreturns that work may still run and call iio_trigger_poll() on data-\u003etrig,\nwhich the devm cleanup has already freed, causing a use-after-free.\n\nAdd irq_work_sync(\u0026data-\u003ework) after free_irq() in remove() and in the\nprobe error path, mirroring commit 78601726d4a5 (\"iio: trigger: sysfs:\nfix use-after-free on remove\").\n\nFound by an in-house static analysis tool, confirmed by manual review.","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":"iio: light: gp2ap020a00f: drain irq_work after free_irq","id":"CVE-2026-98662","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"iio: imu: adis16480: fix unprotected debugfs reads","id":"CVE-2026-98663"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"iio: light: rohm-bu27034: Fix infinite delay on error","id":"CVE-2026-98661"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-10-18","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":"2026-10-21","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A use-after-free in the Linux kernel gp2ap020a00f driver allows local attackers to execute code or escalate privileges via race conditions during device removal.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98662/"}
