Overview

CVE-2026-93205 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on September 24, 2026.

Technical description

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

iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Manage teardown with devm

arm_smmu_device_remove() manually frees the IOPF queue, destroys the

vmid_map and disables the device, while the IRQs and queues are devm

managed. devm unwinds only after remove() returns, so the cleanup runs

in the wrong order. The IOPF queue is freed before the event-queue IRQ

whose handler uses it.

Manage all of it with devm so the unwind order is correct. Free the IOPF

queue and vmid_map via devm actions, and disable the device from one

registered after arm_smmu_device_reset().

This is also a prerequisite for fixing a Tegra241 CMDQV CMD_SYNC

use-after-free in the subsequent patch.

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-93205?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine. Rather than flag a version number, it tests whether an issue like CVE-2026-93205 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.
