CVE-2026-43415 Vulnerability Summary

CVE-2026-43415: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: ufs: core: Fix SError in ufshcd_rtc_work() during UFS suspend In __ufshcd_wl_suspend(), cancel_delayed_work_sync() is called to cancel the UFS RTC work, but it is placed after ufshcd_vops_suspend(hba, pm_op, POST_CHANGE). This creates a race condition where ufshcd_rtc_work() can still be running while ufshcd_vops_suspend() is executing. When UFSHCD_CAP_CLK_GATING is not supported, the condition !hba->clk_gating.active_reqs is always true, causing ufshcd_update_rtc() to be executed. Since ufshcd_vops_suspend() typically performs clock gating operations, executing ufshcd_update_rtc() at that moment triggers an SError. The kernel panic trace is as follows: Kernel panic - not syncing: Asynchronous SError Interrupt Call trace: dump_backtrace+0xec/0x128 show_stack+0x18/0x28 dump_stack_lvl+0x40/0xa0 dump_stack+0x18/0x24 panic+0x148/0x374 nmi_panic+0x3c/0x8c arm64_serror_panic+0x64/0x8c do_serror+0xc4/0xc8 el1h_64_error_handler+0x34/0x4c el1h_64_error+0x68/0x6c el1_interrupt+0x20/0x58 el1h_64_irq_handler+0x18/0x24 el1h_64_irq+0x68/0x6c ktime_get+0xc4/0x12c ufshcd_mcq_sq_stop+0x4c/0xec ufshcd_mcq_sq_cleanup+0x64/0x1dc ufshcd_clear_cmd+0x38/0x134 ufshcd_issue_dev_cmd+0x298/0x4d0 ufshcd_exec_dev_cmd+0x1a4/0x1c4 ufshcd_query_attr+0xbc/0x19c ufshcd_rtc_work+0x10c/0x1c8 process_scheduled_works+0x1c4/0x45c worker_thread+0x32c/0x3e8 kthread+0x120/0x1d8 ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20 Fix this by moving cancel_delayed_work_sync() before the call to ufshcd_vops_suspend(hba, pm_op, PRE_CHANGE), ensuring the UFS RTC work is fully completed or cancelled at that point.

Assessing the Risk of CVE-2026-43415

Access Complexity Graph

The exploitability of CVE-2026-43415 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).

Exploitability Analysis for CVE-2026-43415

No exploitability data is available for CVE-2026-43415.

Understanding AC and PR

A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.

Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.

Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.

CVSS Score Breakdown Chart

Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2026-43415, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.

CIA Impact Analysis
