| Release | Status | Version | What this means |
|---|---|---|---|
| Debian 12bookworm | vulnerable | 6.1.190-1 | No fix published anywhere yet, neither in Debian nor upstream for the series bookworm tracks. Watch the Debian tracker page for this CVE. Advisories for bookworm have historically landed a median of 23 days after publication. |
| Debian 13trixie | fixed | 6.7.12-1 | Update the kernel and reboot. Fixed in 6.7.12-1. A running kernel keeps the old code until the machine restarts. |

The vulnerability
What the bug is
(1 << idx) of int is not desired when setting bits in unsigned long overflowed_ctrs, use BIT() instead. This panic happens when running 'perf record -e branches' on sophgo sg2042.

Where it lives
The fix touches these files. If the subsystem is one you do not use, the practical exposure is lower, though the package is still the vulnerable one.

Check it on the machine
grep -wE 'CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS|CONFIG_RISCV_PMU_SBI' /boot/config-$(uname -r)Reads the booted kernel's own configuration, on the machine and nowhere else. =y is built in, =m is a module, and an is not set line means the code is not there.

Why the CNA scored it this way
The kernel CNA published no CVSS vector and no reasoning for CVE-2024-26902, which is why it is shown as unrated rather than given an invented score. 6,405 of the 20,413 CVEs here carry reasoning; this is not one of them.
