CVE-2026-68349

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel, specifically within the carl9170 Wi-Fi driver. This vulnerability is a buffer overflow that occurs in the rxstream failover path. When processing certain USB transfers, the driver attempts to copy more data than its allocated buffer can hold. This can lead to...
