A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 26 Oct 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

A patch is available and included in Linux kernel versions 5.15.0-1117.124~20.04.1 and later related builds. Users should update to these fixed kernel versions to remediate the issue. No additional mitigation is required beyond applying the official kernel updates.

Description

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's USB DWC3 driver was fixed that involved running the gadget disconnect callback from an invalid sleepable suspend context. The issue caused a sleeping function to be called with IRQs disabled, triggering kernel lock dependency warnings and potential instability. This was addressed by modifying the suspend-side disconnect callback to run after releasing the spinlock with IRQs restored. Multiple Linux kernel versions prior to 5.15.0-1117.124~20.04.1 and related builds are affected. The flaw was discovered via static analysis and manual review. No known exploits are reported in the wild.

Impact

The vulnerability causes the Linux kernel to call a sleepable function from an invalid context with interrupts disabled, which can lead to kernel lock dependency violations and potential system instability or crashes. There is no indication of privilege escalation or remote exploitation. No known exploits are reported in the wild. The impact is primarily on system stability and correctness of kernel locking behavior.
