CVE-2026-74647

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: misc: fastrpc: Remove buffer from list prior to unmap operation fastrpc_req_munmap_impl() is called to unmap any buffer. The buffer is getting removed from the list after it is unmapped from DSP. This can create potential race conditions if multiple threads invoke unmap concurrently, where one thread may remove the entry from the list while another thread's unmap operation is still ongoing. Fix this by removing the buffer entry from the list before calling the unmap operation. If the unmap fails, the entry is re-added to the list so that userspace can retry the unmap, or alternatively, the buffer will be cleaned up during device release when the DSP process is torn down and all DSP-side mappings are freed along with remaining buffers in the list.

Affected products and versions

NVD has not supplied machine-readable vulnerable CPE product/version entries for this CVE. This is an information gap, not proof that no products are affected. Check the vendor advisory references below.

Remediation & validation

  1. Identify exposure by comparing the affected product and version ranges with your asset inventory, SBOM and externally exposed services.
  2. Review the linked vendor security advisory or patch notes. Upgrade to a vendor-confirmed fixed release; do not infer a fixed version from the CVE description.
  3. Until patched, consider restricting network access or disabling the affected feature where operationally safe. These are temporary controls, not a substitute for a vendor fix.
  4. Validate the remediation with a version check and vulnerability rescan, then retain change evidence.

No fixed version is displayed unless it is explicitly established by a vendor advisory. Follow the vendor's release notes for exact product and branch applicability.
