Overview

CVE-2026-90368 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: mt7915: unwind state on add_interface failure

When mt76_wcid_alloc() fails, mt7915_add_interface() returned without

clearing the vif_mask/omac_mask bits it had already set, without removing

the firmware dev info added earlier, and without clearing a monitor_vif

pointer to the vif mac80211 is about to free. mac80211 does not call

remove_interface() for a failed add, so the indices and firmware dev

entry leaked permanently and testmode could dereference the stale

monitor_vif. Add a proper error unwind.

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-90368?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine. Rather than flag a version number, it tests whether an issue like CVE-2026-90368 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.
