CVE-2026-98196

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's brcmsmac wireless driver. When a timer is released, the driver fails to wait for running background tasks associated with the timer to finish before freeing memory. A local attacker could exploit this race condition to trigger a use-after-free condition,...

CVE-2026-98196

The Linux kernel contains a Use-After-Free (UAF) vulnerability within the brcmsmac WiFi driver. The issue resides in the brcms_free_timer() function, which calls brcms_del_timer() using the non-synchronous cancel_delayed_work() . If the _brcms_timer callback is already executing, the cancellation...
