Overview

CVE-2026-64493 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on July 25, 2026.

Technical description

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

iio: pressure: mpl115: fix runtime PM leak on read error

mpl115_read_raw() takes a runtime PM reference with pm_runtime_get_sync()

before reading the processed pressure or raw temperature, but on the read

error path it returns without calling pm_runtime_put_autosuspend(). Each

failed read therefore leaks a runtime PM reference and prevents the device

from autosuspending.

Drop the reference before checking the return value so both the success

and error paths are balanced.

Remediation
