Overview

CVE-2026-64501 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on July 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:

iio: adc: ad_sigma_delta: fix CS held asserted and state leaks

In ad_sigma_delta_single_conversion(), set_mode(AD_SD_MODE_IDLE) and

disable_one() were called from the out: block while keep_cs_asserted

was still true. This caused any SPI transfer issued by those callbacks

to carry cs_change=1, leaving CS permanently asserted after the

conversion. Fix by moving both calls into the out_unlock: block, after

keep_cs_asserted is cleared, matching the pattern already used in

ad_sd_calibrate().

In the error path of ad_sd_buffer_postenable(), if an operation fails

after set_mode(AD_SD_MODE_CONTINUOUS) has already succeeded (e.g.

spi_offload_trigger_enable()), the device is left in continuous

conversion mode with CS physically asserted. Additionally,

bus_locked remaining true after spi_bus_unlock() causes subsequent

SPI operations to call spi_sync_locked() without the bus lock actually

held, allowing concurrent SPI access.

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-64501?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine. Rather than flag a version number, it tests whether an issue like CVE-2026-64501 is actually reachable in your own applications and APIs, then verifies each finding before reporting it. That tells you if the weakness is a real, exploitable risk in your environment or a false positive you can safely deprioritize.
