CVE-2026-46146: Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: usb-audio: Avoid potential endless loop in convertchmapv3 The convertchmapv3 has a loop with its increment size of csdesc-wLength, but we forgot to validate csdesc-wLength itself, which may lead to potential endless loop by...

Linux Kernel Security Vulnerabilities

The Linux kernel is the core of the open-source operating system Linux, developed by the Linux Foundation in the United States. There is a security vulnerability in the Linux kernel, which stems from the ALSA usb-audio library’s convertchmapv3 function not verifying the csdesc-wLength value,...

CVE-2026-47269

pamusb provides hardware authentication for Linux using ordinary removable media. Prior to 0.9.0, pamusb's denyremote feature checks utmpx utaddrv6 to detect whether an authentication request originates from a remote session. The outer guard was if utent-utaddrv60 != 0, which only tests the first...

CVE-2026-44712

pamusb provides hardware authentication for Linux using ordinary removable media. Prior to 0.8.7, a crafted UUID such as $id/tmp/rce in the config causes root RCE when pamusb-conf --reset-pads is run. A USB device with a crafted filesystem UUID some controllers allow this can inject the payload a...

CVE-2026-47270

pamusb provides hardware authentication for Linux using ordinary removable media. Prior to 0.9.0, pamusb is a PAM module loaded into the host process sudo, login, GDM, GNOME Shell. Display managers such as GDM run multiple concurrent authentication threads. Three functions used by the denyremote...

CVE-2026-44710

pamusb provides hardware authentication for Linux using ordinary removable media. Prior to 0.8.7, src/device.c passed the return values of udisksdrivegetserial, udisksdrivegetvendor, and udisksdrivegetmodel directly to strcmp without NULL checks. The GIO/UDisks API documentation states these...

CVE-2026-46018

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Advanced Linux Sound Architecture ALSA USB audio driver. A malicious Universal Serial Bus USB audio device could send a malformed Universal Audio Class 2 UAC2 RANGE response. This could cause the system to repeatedly print error messages and potentially lead...

CVE-2026-44712 pam_usb: Shell injection via device UUID and username in pamusb-conf and pamusb-agent

pamusb provides hardware authentication for Linux using ordinary removable media. Prior to 0.8.7, a crafted UUID such as $id/tmp/rce in the config causes root RCE when pamusb-conf --reset-pads is run. A USB device with a crafted filesystem UUID some controllers allow this can inject the payload a...

EUVD-2026-32661

pamusb provides hardware authentication for Linux using ordinary removable media. Prior to 0.8.7, pamusb-pinentry reads the PINENTRYFALLBACKAPP environment variable and executes it directly without any validation. Any process that can set environment variables before pamusb-pinentry is invoked ca...

CVE-2026-44710

pam_usb for Linux is affected by a NULL pointer dereference in src/device.c prior to 0.8.7, where return values from udisks_drive_get_serial(), udisks_drive_get_vendor(), and udisks_drive_get_model() were passed directly to strcmp() without NULL checks. The GIO/UDisks API can return NULL for thes...
