Overview

CVE-2026-90366 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on September 17, 2026.

Technical description

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

wifi: mt76: mt7996: reserve space for the CSA-abort countdown TLV

When a CSA countdown is active, mt7996_mcu_beacon_cntdwn() emits two

bss_bcn_cntdwn_tlv entries (the CSA countdown and the CCA-abort BCC), but

MT7996_BEACON_UPDATE_SIZE only reserved one. With MBSSID enabled and a

near-maximum beacon template the extra 8 bytes could push the offload

command past MT7996_MAX_BSS_OFFLOAD_SIZE and trigger skb_over_panic().

Reserve room for both countdown TLVs.
