Overview

CVE-2026-72031 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 15, 2026.

Technical description

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

ata: libata-core: Add NOLPM quirk for PNY CS900 1TB SSD

The PNY CS900 1TB SSD (Phison PS3111-S11, DRAM-less) drops off the bus

after entering Device-Initiated Slumber during idle. With the default

med_power_with_dipm policy the link goes down (SStatus 1 SControl 300)

and does not recover, forcing the filesystem read-only. Forcing

max_performance keeps the link stable across prolonged idle.

Add a NOLPM quirk so link power management is disabled for this drive

specifically, leaving it intact for other devices on the host.

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.
