AI-suggested

A fix is available that moves the ODVP cleanup to a common unwind path ensuring proper resource release on all failure paths. Users should apply the updated Linux kernel versions that include this patch. No additional mitigations are indicated by the vendor advisory.

Description

CVE-2026-92504 is a high severity vulnerability in the Linux kernel's thermal driver for Intel int3400. It involves improper cleanup of ODVP (On-Die Voltage Parameters) sysfs files when probe failures occur during device initialization. This can leave residual ODVP files and storage allocated, potentially leading to resource leaks or inconsistent system state. The issue is addressed by moving the ODVP cleanup to a common unwind path to ensure proper release of resources on all failure paths.
