CVE-2026-90068

What the bug is

The snd_soc_dapm_put_enum_double() rejects item[0] once it reaches e->items, but it lets item[1] be equal to it. Both go on to snd_soc_enum_item_to_val(), which indexes e->values with no bound of its own, so an enum with a value table reads one element past the end. The indexing arrived with the MUX consolidation, which relaxed the item[1] check in the same hunk. The value MUX handler it deleted used >= there, and the snd_soc_put_enum_double() in soc-ops.c still does. Only adav80x pairs a value table with two shifts, and its second channel looks accidental, but the control does report two values. Writing three into it reads off the end of adav80x_mux_values. The core catches that only under CONFIG_SND_CTL_INPUT_VALIDATION, which defaults off.

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.

What this is

SOUND - SOC LAYER / DYNAMIC AUDIO POWER MANAGEMENT (ASoC)MAINTAINERS section matched on sound/soc/ · linux-sound@vger.kernel.org · Supported

Kernel module

snd_soc_core

Check it on the machine

grep -wE 'CONFIG_SND|CONFIG_SND_SOC' /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.

lsmod | grep -w snd_soc_core

Prints a line if that module is loaded right now, and nothing if it is not. One that is not loaded can still be loaded later by anything that needs it.

Show whether Debian builds this, per release

Debian builds this, but not on every flavour. At least one release below builds the code on some of its kernel flavours and not on others, so the answer depends on the architecture and flavour installed.

all on means the file is compiled; any one off means it is not.

From the configuration Debian publishes for every kernel flavour it builds. It covers only the architectures Debian ships a linux-config package for, and nothing about a kernel you built yourself.
