CVE-2026-72147: Linux

EPSS: 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dmaengine: dw-edma-pcie: Reject devices without driver data dw_edma_pcie_probe() treats the PCI device ID driver_data as the template for the controller layout and copies it unconditionally. A device bound dynamically via sysfs can match the driver without that data, which leads to a NULL pointer dereference. Reject such matches before enabling the device.

Affected products

• Linux Linux: from 5.3, before 6.6.148 (fixed in 6.6.148); from 6.7, before 6.12.101 (fixed in 6.12.101); from 6.13, before 6.18.42 (fixed in 6.18.42); from 6.19, before 7.1.5 (fixed in 7.1.5)
