CVE-2026-98086In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: ump: do not touch legacy_rmidi before it exists
snd_ump_parse_endpoint() sets ump->parsed on every exit, including
error, before the caller attaches the legacy rawmidi device.
ump_handle_ep_name_msg() then treats parsed as "legacy_rmidi is live"
and calls ump_legacy_set_rawmidi_name(), which snprintf()s into
ump->legacy_rmidi->name. If a UMP packet arrives in that window
(IRQ path from snd_ump_receive), legacy_rmidi is still NULL
(KASAN null-ptr-deref in snprintf).
Guard the legacy helpers. parsed only means endpoint info was
parsed, not that legacy_rmidi exists.
