CVE-2026-80624 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 28, 2026.

Technical description

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

mfd: cs42l43: Sanity check firmware size

Currently the code checks if a firmware was received, however it does

not verify that the firmware size is larger than the firmware header. As

the firmware pointer is dereferenced as a pointer to the header

structure this could lead to an out of bounds memory access. Add the

missing check.
