CVE-2026-72059

Published Aug 15, 2026 EPSS 0.21% (12th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2026-72059 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 15, 2026.

Technical Description

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

net: wwan: t7xx: destroy DMA pool on CLDMA late init failure

t7xx_cldma_late_init() creates md_ctrl->gpd_dmapool before

initializing the TX and RX rings. If any ring initialization

fails, the error path frees the already initialized rings but

leaves the DMA pool allocated.

Destroy md_ctrl->gpd_dmapool on the late-init failure path

to avoid leaking the DMA pool.

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.
