Overview

CVE-2026-90082 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on September 17, 2026.

Technical description

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

net: mana: Cap MSI-X vectors to the device MSI-X table size

mana_gd_query_max_resources() sizes gc->num_msix_usable from resp.max_msix

and the CPU count, but never from the device MSI-X table. On a 1792 vCPU

M-series VM that yields 1793 while the table has 1024 entries, and

mana_gd_setup_remaining_irqs() then walks indices 1..1792, running off the

end of the region mapped by msix_map_region():

BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ff8e347f8b99800c

RIP: 0010:msix_prepare_msi_desc+0x7a/0x90

RAX: 0000000000004000 RBX: ff4330cb164ea780 RCX: ff8e347f8b998000

Call Trace:

<TASK>

__msi_domain_alloc_irqs+0x13a/0x440

msi_domain_alloc_irq_at+0x149/0x1b0

mana_gd_setup+0x351/0x890

mana_gd_probe+0x274/0x390

</TASK>

RAX is index 1024 * PCI_MSIX_ENTRY_SIZE, one entry past the table.

msi_insert_desc() does range check the index, but only against the MSI

domain hwsize, which matches the table only

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-90082?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine. Rather than flag a version number, it tests whether an issue like CVE-2026-90082 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.
