CVE-2026-100079: Linux Kernel

Medium severity, CVSS 5.5. EPSS: 0.1% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: typec: ucsi: unregister debugfs entries on teardown ucsi_register() creates per-instance debugfs entries, but ucsi_unregister() keeps them around until ucsi_destroy(). Drivers like ucsi_glink that unregister/register the same UCSI instance across remoteproc restart then try to create an already existing debugfs directory and log: debugfs: 'pmic_glink.ucsi.0' already exists in 'ucsi' Unregister debugfs entries as part of ucsi_unregister(), and clear ucsi->debugfs after freeing it so repeated unregister paths remain safe.

Affected products

  • Linux Linux Kernel: from 6.6, before 6.6.157 (fixed in 6.6.157); from 6.7, before 6.12.110 (fixed in 6.12.110); from 6.13, before 6.18.52 (fixed in 6.18.52); from 6.19, before 7.2.6 (fixed in 7.2.6)
