CVE-2026-43155 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mux: mmio: fix regmap leak on probe failure The mmio regmap that may be allocated during probe is never freed. Switch to using the device managed allocator so that the regmap is released on probe failures (e.g. probe deferral) and on driver unbind.
A memory leak vulnerability has been identified in the Linux kernel's mux MMIO driver. When the driver probe fails, any allocated MMIO regmap is not properly released, leading to a memory leak. This issue has been addressed by switching to a device-managed allocator, ensuring that the regmap is freed on probe failures and when the driver is unbound.
The vulnerability has been fixed in the Linux kernel. Users should upgrade to the latest version where this issue has been addressed.
