Overview

CVE-2026-80867 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on September 4, 2026.

Technical description

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

alpha/PCI: Add security_locked_down() check to pci_mmap_resource()

Currently, Alpha's pci_mmap_resource() does not check

security_locked_down(LOCKDOWN_PCI_ACCESS) before allowing userspace to mmap

PCI BARs.

The generic version has had this check since commit eb627e17727e ("PCI:

Lock down BAR access when the kernel is locked down") to prevent DMA

attacks when the kernel is locked down.

Add the same check to Alpha's pci_mmap_resource().

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-80867?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine. Rather than flag a version number, it tests whether an issue like CVE-2026-80867 is actually reachable in your own applications and APIs, then verifies each finding before reporting it. That tells you if the weakness is a real, exploitable risk in your environment or a false positive you can safely deprioritize.
