{"id":"CVE-2026-90346","summary":"wifi: nl80211: clean up color-change beacon data on errors","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nwifi: nl80211: clean up color-change beacon data on errors\n\nnl80211_color_change() calls nl80211_parse_beacon() for the beacon_next\ntemplate, which can allocate params.beacon_next.mbssid_ies and .rnr_ies.\nA parsing failure returned directly instead of using the out: cleanup,\nleaking any allocations completed before the error.\n\nAllocate the nested attribute table before parsing beacon_next. Its\nallocation failure can then return before beacon data exists, while a\nlater parsing failure uses out: to release the parsed data.","modified":"2026-09-19T03:47:30.940388270Z","published":"2026-09-17T16:08:55.591Z","database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"Linux","osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/90xxx/CVE-2026-90346.json"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4e0a67fbe3d9e2e1d6f81dfc607184c6b0abd3dd"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/927ee844c47ac2aef22c8f7a35f098ff576b398b"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/90xxx/CVE-2026-90346.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-90346"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"dc1e3cb8da8b414b37208b2fb6755fef8122504b"},{"fixed":"4e0a67fbe3d9e2e1d6f81dfc607184c6b0abd3dd"},{"fixed":"927ee844c47ac2aef22c8f7a35f098ff576b398b"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-90346.json"}},{"package":{"name":"Kernel","ecosystem":"Linux"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"5.16.0"},{"fixed":"7.2.6"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-90346.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
