Overview

CVE-2026-74295 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 15, 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:

ASoC: codecs: hdac_hdmi: Validate written enum value

hdac_hdmi_set_pin_port_mux() uses the written enum value to index the

texts array before calling snd_soc_dapm_put_enum_double(), which validates

that the value is within the enum item range.

An out-of-range value can therefore make the driver read past the texts

array before the helper rejects the write. Move the lookup after the helper

has accepted the value.

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.
