Their sum (up to 765) can exceed the actual WMI event\ndata, causing out-of-bounds reads during IE parsing and state corruption\nof wmi->is_wmm_enabled.\n\nAdd a check that the total IE length fits within the buffer.","published":"2026-08-10T12:03:29.304Z","modified":"2026-08-14T04:04:11.995087846Z","cvss":{"score":8.3,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:H"},"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":null,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"Linux","name":"Kernel","fixedVersion":"6.6.148"}],"fix":null,"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1c690f7c4c5b37108ac8c98b94ce1b3c655a4f5e"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/33b5342d2080657054ddf89ef1199b426a37dae8"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6b47b29730de3232b919d8362749f6814c5f2a33"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/94e1bfcefe8264a207c2fda2febb954e70a34b42"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d70c0a850c21b57a6f46ce363860203389bbeaa6"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/68xxx/CVE-2026-68352.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-68352"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-08-14T04:04:11.995087846Z"}}
