CVE-2026-53280

5.5 · MEDIUM
Published Jun 26, 2026 linux CWE-476 EPSS 0.11% (1th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2026-53280 is a medium-severity vulnerability affecting linux linux_kernel. It was published on June 26, 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:

iommu: Fix NULL group->domain dereference in pci_dev_reset_iommu_done()

Local sashiko review pointed it out that group->domain could be NULL when

a default domain fails to allocate during the first probe, which can crash

at domain->ops->attach_dev dereference in __iommu_attach_device() invoked

by pci_dev_reset_iommu_done().

pci_dev_reset_iommu_prepare() is fine as an old_domain pointer can be NULL.

Skip the re-attach in pci_dev_reset_iommu_done() to fix the bug.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories and patches from linux. Update linux_kernel to the latest patched version. 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.
