CVE-2026-80736

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: thunderbolt: Fix bandwidth group reservation indexing Valid bandwidth group IDs range from 1 through MAX_GROUPS, while Group ID 0 is reserved. tb_consumed_dp_bandwidth() uses the Group ID directly to index its local group_reserved[] array. The array currently has MAX_GROUPS entries, so its valid indices are 0 through MAX_GROUPS - 1. Group ID MAX_GROUPS therefore accesses one element past the end, and the final group's reserved bandwidth is not included when the array is summed. Give group_reserved[] MAX_GROUPS + 1 entries so direct Group ID indexing covers the reserved ID 0 and valid IDs 1 through MAX_GROUPS.

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

Identify exposure by comparing the affected product and version ranges with your asset inventory, SBOM and externally exposed services.
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.
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.
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.
