Overview

CVE-2026-90365 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on September 17, 2026.

Technical description

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

wifi: mt76: cancel reset and rc work on device unregister

Both drivers cancelled dump_work on unregister but left reset_work and

rc_work to be flushed only by destroy_workqueue() in mt76_free_device(),

which runs after the hw is unregistered and the hardware stopped. A

reset_work that fires in that window calls ieee80211_restart_hw() and

re-arms mac_work on an unregistered hw, and rc_work touches station state

being torn down. Cancel both up front, alongside dump_work.
