CVE-2026-74652: Linux

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: serial: amba-pl011: cancel RS485 hrtimers after freeing IRQ The RS485 trigger hrtimers are embedded in the devm-managed port and can fire after it is freed. The IRQ handler can arm a timer, so free the IRQ first and then cancel both timers. Complete the RS485 stop without arming a timer, and cancel the timers in remove() for the suspend-then-unbind path, where shutdown is not called. This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.

Affected products

• Linux Linux: from 6.14, before 6.18.45 (fixed in 6.18.45); from 6.19, before 7.1.9 (fixed in 7.1.9)
