Short explanation
CVE-2026-98754 in the Linux kernel tty subsystem occurs because vcc_cleanup sets port->tty to NULL without holding the port->lock.
This condition can race with vcc_event callbacks, potentially triggering a use-after-free vulnerability.
What should be done?
- Follow vendor advisories and security updates
- Review official Linux kernel patches
Chain of evidence and sources
vcc_cleanup() fonksiyonu port->tty değerini port->lock kilidini tutmadan NULL olarak ayarlar.
Bu durum, port->tty okuyan vcc_event() LDC geri çağrımları ile yarış koşuluna neden olur.
Show the technical text from the sources
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tty: vcc: hold port lock when clearing tty pointer in vcc_cleanup vcc_cleanup() sets port->tty to NULL without holding port->lock, racing with vcc_event() LDC callbacks that read port->tty under port->lock and then use tty->port. This can cause a use-after-free when the callback dereferences tty->port after cleanup has already destroyed and freed it.
