DayBreach CVE AI Research
CVE-2026-90379 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: wifi: mt76: mt7921: Add PCIe AER handler support to prevent system crash When an AER error occurs and the bus is hung, the register reads return 0xFFFFFFFF, causing the DMA queue state to be corrupted and resulting in an invalid memory access when accessing q->desc[] or q->entry[].

An out-of-range value, such as the 0xFFFFFFFF returned while the bus is hung, is now clamped so it can no longer corrupt q->head or q->tail. In addition, check the bus_hung flag in mt7921_mac_reset_work() before attempting the reset sequence, reject MCU messages while the bus is hung, and install no-op bus operations when an unrecoverable AER error is detected, preventing further invalid hardware accesses. Due to hardware limitations - such as the lack of a connected hardware reset pin or the absence of host re-probe functionality - affected Wi-Fi devices may not fully recover to a normal operational state after certain errors, even with AER enabled.
