Vulnerability in Linux Kernel Affects DSP3 Ethernet MAC Endpoint Configuration

CVE-2026-93265

What is CVE-2026-93265?

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel affects the DSP3 module, specifically the integrated Ethernet MAC Endpoint. This issue arises from incorrect parsing of configuration registers, leading to improper access of physical function settings. The existing logic results in out-of-bounds access by attempting to parse both physical functions instead of the designated Endpoint node. This flaw highlights the importance of correct configuration parsing to ensure stability and security in network operations.
