In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: aloop: Fix peer runtime UAF during format-change stop loopback_check_format() may stop the capture side when playback starts with parameters that no longer match a running capture stream. Commit 826af7fa62e3 ("ALSA: aloop: Fix racy access at PCM trigger") moved the peer lookup under cable->lock, but the actual snd_pcm_stop() still runs after dropping that lock. A concurrent close can clear the capture entry from cable->streams[] and detach or free its runtime while the playback trigger path still holds a stale peer substream pointer. Keep a per-cable count of in-flight peer stops before dropping cable->lock, and make free_cable() wait for those stops before detaching the runtime. This preserves the existing behavior while making the peer runtime lifetime explicit.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - ALSA: aloop: Fix peer runtime UAF during format-change stop loopback_check_format() may stop the capture     side when playback starts with parameters that no longer match a running capture stream. Commit     826af7fa62e3 (ALSA: aloop: Fix racy access at PCM trigger) moved the peer lookup under cable->lock, but     the actual snd_pcm_stop() still runs after dropping that lock. A concurrent close can clear the capture     entry from cable->streams[] and detach or free its runtime while the playback trigger path still holds a     stale peer substream pointer. Keep a per-cable count of in-flight peer stops before dropping cable->lock,     and make free_cable() wait for those stops before detaching the runtime. This preserves the existing     behavior while making the peer runtime lifetime explicit. (CVE-2026-46090)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
