Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-23030

critical Nessus Plugin ID 297484

Synopsis

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.

Description

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

- phy: rockchip: inno-usb2: Fix a double free bug in rockchip_usb2phy_probe() The for_each_available_child_of_node() calls of_node_put() to release child_np in each success loop. After breaking from the loop with the child_np has been released, the code will jump to the put_child label and will call the of_node_put() again if the devm_request_threaded_irq() fails. These cause a double free bug.
Fix by returning directly to avoid the duplicate of_node_put(). (CVE-2026-23030)

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

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
