Overview

CVE-2026-90412 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on September 17, 2026.

Technical description

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

nvmet: fix return status of RMI log page on allocation failure

nvmet_execute_get_log_page_rmi() leaves 'status' holding NVME_SC_SUCCESS

(set by the successful nvmet_req_find_ns() call) when the kzalloc() for

the log buffer fails. It then jumps to the out label and completes the

request with a success status, so the host is told the command succeeded

while no data was transferred.

Initialize 'status' to NVME_SC_INTERNAL, matching the smart log handler,

so an allocation failure is reported as an internal error.
