CVE-2026-45909: Linux Kernel

High severity, CVSS 7.8. EPSS: 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: clk: mediatek: Drop __initconst from gates Since commit 8ceff24a754a ("clk: mediatek: clk-gate: Refactor mtk_clk_register_gate to use mtk_gate struct") the mtk_gate structs are no longer just used for initialization/registration, but also at runtime. So drop __initconst annotations.

Affected products

• Linux Linux Kernel: from 6.18, before 6.18.14 (fixed in 6.18.14); from 6.19, before 6.19.4 (fixed in 6.19.4)
