Overview

CVE-2026-31475 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on April 22, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.8 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.8, 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:

ASoC: sma1307: fix double free of devm_kzalloc() memory

A previous change added NULL checks and cleanup for allocation

failures in sma1307_setting_loaded().

However, the cleanup for mode_set entries is wrong. Those entries are

allocated with devm_kzalloc(), so they are device-managed resources and

must not be freed with kfree(). Manually freeing them in the error path

can lead to a double free when devres later releases the same memory.

Drop the manual kfree() loop and let devres handle the cleanup.

Remediation
