Overview

CVE-2026-90245 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on September 17, 2026.

Technical description

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

fbdev: kyro: Validate overlay viewport coordinates

The overlay viewport end coordinates are computed from the viewport

origin and dimensions using 32-bit unsigned arithmetic. Large input

values can cause these calculations to wrap around before the resulting

coordinates are passed to SetOverlayViewPort().

SetOverlayViewPort() packs the viewport coordinates into 16-bit

register fields. The X coordinates are additionally adjusted by +2

and +1 before being written. Validate the coordinate calculations

for 32-bit wraparound and ensure that the adjusted coordinates fit

within their 16-bit register fields before calling

SetOverlayViewPort().

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-90245?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine. Rather than flag a version number, it tests whether an issue like CVE-2026-90245 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.
