CVE-2026-53336 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.5/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nvmem: layouts: onie-tlv: fix hang on unknown types The EEPROM on my board has a vendor specific entry of type 0x41. When stumbling upon that, this driver hangs in an endless loop. Fix it by keep incrementing the offset on unknown entries, so the loop will eventually stop.. EPSS estimates a 0.16% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
