CVE-2026-43171
•
published on May 6, 2026
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
EFI/CPER: don't dump the entire memory region
The current logic at cper_print_fw_err() doesn't check if the
error record length is big enough to handle offset. On a bad firmware,
if the ofset is above the actual record, length -= offset will
underflow, making it dump the entire memory.
The end result can be:
- the logic taking a lot of time dumping large regions of memory;
- data disclosure due to the memory dumps;
- an OOPS, if it tries to dump an unmapped memory region.
Fix it by checking if the section length is too small before doing
a hex dump.

CVE-2026-43170
•
published on May 6, 2026
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: dwc3: gadget: Move vbus draw to workqueue context
Currently dwc3_gadget_vbus_draw() can be called from atomic
context, which in turn invokes power-supply-core APIs. And
some these PMIC APIs have operations that may sleep, leading
to kernel panic.
Fix this by moving the vbus_draw into a workqueue context.
