{"id":"AZL-102794","summary":"CVE-2026-90137 affecting package kernel 6.6.150.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nplatform/x86: hp-bioscfg: fix password encoding bounds check\n\nThe password PSWD_ENCODINGS parser reads password_obj[elem + pos_values]\nwhile copying the supported password encodings from the ACPI package.\n\nThe outer loop only guarantees that elem is within password_obj_count.\nThe encoding count is bounded by MAX_ENCODINGS_SIZE, but that does not\nguarantee that the ACPI package contains enough entries for all\nelem + pos_values accesses.\n\nA malformed package can therefore declare a non-zero encoding count\nwithout providing enough string objects, causing the parser to read past\nthe ACPI package array and pass an out-of-bounds string pointer and\nlength to hp_convert_hexstr_to_str().\n\nAdd the same computed-index bounds check used by the other offset-based\npackage parsing loops before reading password_obj[elem + pos_values].","modified":"2026-09-19T05:33:49Z","published":"2026-09-17T17:17:06Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-90137"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-90137"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"6.6.150.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-102794.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
