Vulnerability description
DayBreach CVE AI Research
CVE-2026-89983 has vendor, distribution, patch and security-source records on file. We can compare them and prepare an explanation linked to the evidence.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: i2c: core: fix debugfs UAF on adapter removal i2c_del_adapter() frees the adapter's debugfs directory before it unregisters the adapter device, but the new_device sysfs attribute stays writable until device_del(). A write racing with removal still reaches i2c_device_probe(), which passes the freed adap->debugfs to debugfs_create_dir() as the new client's parent: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in lookup_noperm_common+0x407/0x430 Read of size 4 at addr ffff88803ef87810 by task syz.0.61/6090 lookup_noperm_common+0x407/0x430 simple_start_creating+0x9c/0x110 debugfs_start_creating+0xdb/0x1a0 debugfs_create_dir+0x24/0x350 i2c_device_probe+0x814/0xbf0 It's technically possible to create a client after i2c_deregister_clients has run. That client will never be unregistered and make wait_for_completion hang. Close the window by removing the new_device attribute at the start of i2c_del_adapter(). device_remove_file() will drain any clients left.
