Overview

CVE-2026-98437 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on October 18, 2026.

Technical description

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

media: qcom: iris: fix runtime PM reference leaks

Use pm_runtime_resume_and_get() in iris_enable_power_domains()

to avoid leaking a runtime PM usage count on failure.

Also ensure pm_runtime_put_sync() is always called in

iris_disable_power_domains(), even when iris_opp_set_rate()

fails, so runtime PM references remain balanced.
