CVE-2026-63930

7.8 · HIGH
Published Jul 19, 2026 EPSS 0.16% (5th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2026-63930 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on July 19, 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:

iio: buffer: hw-consumer: fix use-after-free in error path

In the err_put_buffers cleanup path of iio_hw_consumer_alloc(), the code

was using list_for_each_entry() to iterate through buffers while calling

iio_buffer_put() which can free the current buffer if refcount drops to 0.

The list_for_each_entry() loop macro then evaluates buf->head.next to

continue iteration, accessing the freed buffer.

Fix this by using list_for_each_entry_safe().

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.
