Overview

CVE-2026-23116 is a medium-severity vulnerability. It was published on February 14, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.5 (MEDIUM).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.5, rated MEDIUM. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

pmdomain: imx8m-blk-ctrl: Remove separate rst and clk mask for 8mq vpu

For i.MX8MQ platform, the ADB in the VPUMIX domain has no separate reset

and clock enable bits, but is ungated and reset together with the VPUs.

So we can't reset G1 or G2 separately, it may led to the system hang.

Remove rst_mask and clk_mask of imx8mq_vpu_blk_ctl_domain_data.

Let imx8mq_vpu_power_notifier() do really vpu reset.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
