Overview

CVE-2026-93128 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on September 17, 2026.

Technical description

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

platform/x86: lg-laptop: Fix LED resource handling

The event notification callback might access kbd_backlight even

when it was not successfully registered with the LED subsystem.

The same happens inside acpi_remove(), where the LED devices are

unregistered unconditionally.

Fix this by tracking the availability of the kbd_backlight LED

device and use devm_led_classdev_register() to let devres take

care of unregistering the LED devices during removal. For this

the parent device of the LED devices is changed to the native

platform device.
