Overview

CVE-2026-23305 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on March 25, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.1 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.1, rated HIGH. 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:

accel/rocket: fix unwinding in error path in rocket_probe

When rocket_core_init() fails (as could be the case with EPROBE_DEFER),

we need to properly unwind by decrementing the counter we just

incremented and if this is the first core we failed to probe, remove the

rocket DRM device with rocket_device_fini() as well. This matches the

logic in rocket_remove(). Failing to properly unwind results in

out-of-bounds accesses.

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.

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-23305?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine.
