CVE-2026-53210: 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: tee: shm: fix shm leak in register_shm_helper() register_shm_helper() allocates shm before calling iov_iter_npages(). If iov_iter_npages() returns 0, the function jumps to err_ctx_put and leaks shm. This can be triggered by TEE_IOC_SHM_REGISTER with struct tee_ioctl_shm_register_data where length is 0. Jump to err_free_shm instead.

Affected products

• Linux Linux Kernel: from 6.8, before 6.12.94 (fixed in 6.12.94); from 6.13, before 6.18.36 (fixed in 6.18.36); from 6.19, before 7.0.13 (fixed in 7.0.13); version 7.1 only
