CVE-2026-98263: Linux

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

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: codecs: rt712-sdca-dmic: fix uninitialized stream_config->type stream_config is not initialized before being passed to sdw_stream_add_slave(). The type field may contain garbage and is later copied to stream->type by sdw_config_stream(). Zero-initialize stream_config so type defaults to SDW_STREAM_PCM. While at it, use snd_sdw_params_to_config() helper instead of open-coding the same logic.

Affected products

• Linux Linux: from 6.4, before 6.6.158 (fixed in 6.6.158); from 6.7, before 6.12.112 (fixed in 6.12.112); from 6.13, before 6.18.54 (fixed in 6.18.54); from 6.19, before 7.2.8 (fixed in 7.2.8)
