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-2026-98935/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98935/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-98935","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98935/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-98935","record":{"aliases":["AZL-110723","BELL-CVE-2026-98935","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-98935","GHSA-p9j5-gjf3-cch6","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-98935"],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"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\nrtc: dev: zero-initialize struct rtc_wkalrm to prevent information leak\n\nThe struct rtc_wkalrm has padding holes after the 'pending' member.\nWhen returned to userspace via the RTC_WKALRM_RD ioctl, uninitialized\nkernel stack data residing in these holes may be leaked.\n\nZero-initialize the struct at declaration to eliminate this information\nleak risk.\n\nFixes smatch warnings:\n- drivers/rtc/dev.c:392 rtc_dev_ioctl() warn: check that 'alarm' doesn't\n  leak information (struct has a hole after 'pending')","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":"rtc: dev: zero-initialize struct rtc_wkalrm to prevent information leak","id":"CVE-2026-98935","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":null,"year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"wifi: ath11k: reset ar-\u003enum_stations on hardware start","id":"CVE-2026-98936"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"ipv6: sr: use skb_get_hash_net() in seg6_make_flowlabel()","id":"CVE-2026-98934"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-10-23","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":"2026-10-23","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":null,"url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98935/"}
