Overview

CVE-2026-93080 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on September 17, 2026.

Technical description

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

firmware: arm_scmi: Fix transport device teardown lookup

SCMI transport devices are deliberately excluded from normal SCMI bus

matching so protocol drivers cannot bind to the internal transport

children. However, scmi_device_destroy() uses the same protocol/name

lookup to find devices that must be unregistered during channel teardown.

Split the match helper so driver matching still skips transport devices,

while explicit child lookup can find them for teardown. Use a shared

transport-device name prefix macro for both matching and name generation.

Since transport-device names are derived from direction and protocol ID,

reject duplicate protocol channel setup before creating or finding a

transport device. This prevents malformed firmware with duplicate

protocol child nodes from reusing an existing transport device and then

destroying it when the duplicate IDR insertion fails.

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.

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-93080?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine. Rather than flag a version number, it tests whether an issue like CVE-2026-93080 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.
