Overview
CVE-2026-80581 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 26, 2026.
Technical description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: SOF: ipc4-pcm: Continue the pipeline trigger in case of IPC timeout
Ignore IPC errors for pipeline state change if the firmware state is
crashed or the IPC has timed out.
If the firmware has crashed the kernel still needs to go through the state
changes to reset its internal to be able to correctly work the next time
the DSP is booted up.
The case with IPC timeout is a bit more problematic, but it has been
rootcaused to be the result of system scheduling blockage and the firmware
did actually received and handled the message, but the reply handling got
blocked by issues outside of the SOF stack.
So far the best way to handle this is to continue with setting the state.

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-80581?
CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine. Rather than flag a version number, it tests whether an issue like CVE-2026-80581 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.
