Overview

CVE-2026-93069 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on September 17, 2026.

Technical description

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

OPP: Fix cleanup ordering

Commit 173e02d67494 ("OPP: Initialize scope-based pointers inline")

added initialization for all pointers. In some cases, the ordering was

changed so that *opp_table was initialized after *opp. This also changes

the order of the registered cleanup functions.

When the cleanup happens, this can cause use-after-free errors when the

last reference is released and the release function _opp_kref_release

tries to access the already freed opp->opp_table.

Initialize *opp_table before *opp again to fix this and ensure the

correct cleanup order.
