CVE-2026-64343 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: USB: ldusb: fix use-after-free on disconnect race mutex_unlock() may access the mutex structure after releasing the lock and therefore cannot be used to manage lifetime of objects directly (unlike spinlocks and refcounts). [1][2] Use a kref to release the driver data to avoid use-after-free in mutex_unlock() when release() races with disconnect().

EPSS estimates a 0.18% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
