CVE-2026-68413

Published Aug 10, 2026 EPSS 0.20% (9th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2026-68413 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 10, 2026.

Technical Description

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

wifi: ipw2100: fix potential memory leak in ipw2100_pci_init_one()

The memory allocated in the ipw2100_alloc_device() function is not freed

in some of the error paths in ipw2100_pci_init_one(). Fix that by

converting the direct return into a goto to the error path return.

The error path when pci_enable_device() fails cannot jump to fail, since

at this point priv is not set, so perform error handling inline.

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.
