Last modified
CVE-2026-23065 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.5/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: platform/x86/amd: Fix memory leak in wbrf_record() The tmp buffer is allocated using kcalloc() but is not freed if acpi_evaluate_dsm() fails. This causes a memory leak in the error path. Fix this by explicitly freeing the tmp buffer in the error handling path of acpi_evaluate_dsm().. EPSS estimates a 0.12% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
