CVE-2026-72075

Published Aug 15, 2026 EPSS 0.21% (12th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2026-72075 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 15, 2026.

Technical Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Input: ims-pcu - fix race condition in reset_device sysfs callback

The ims_pcu_reset_device() sysfs callback calls ims_pcu_execute_command()

without acquiring pcu->cmd_mutex. This can lead to data races and

corruption of the shared command buffer if triggered concurrently with

other commands.

Acquire pcu->cmd_mutex before calling ims_pcu_execute_command().

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
