CVE-2026-90069

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's cryptographic acceleration (acomp) component. This vulnerability arises when the system attempts to clone a cryptographic request, but insufficient memory is allocated for asynchronous operations. This can lead to an out-of-bounds write, where data is written beyond its intended memory boundary. A local attacker could potentially exploit this memory corruption, leading to a system crash (Denial of Service) or potentially gaining elevated privileges.
