CVE-2026-64329: usb: typec: ucsi: ccg: Fix use-after-free of ucsi on remove
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 31/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.12% (FIRST EPSS).
- Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: Linux Linux 1a160076d3d0dcd4a98a4599ad96eec0790b099b, 1f0bdc2884b67de337215079bba166df0cdf4ac5, 86c9ee928c4a370e323e432aaf8dca79c4ba7c85.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 1a160076d3d0dcd4a98a4599ad96eec0790b099b, 1f0bdc2884b67de337215079bba166df0cdf4ac5, 86c9ee928c4a370e323e432aaf8dca79c4ba7c85 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: typec: ucsi: ccg: Fix use-after-free of ucsi on remove The threaded IRQ handler ccg_irq_handler() calls ucsi_notify_common(), which on a connector-change event calls ucsi_connector_change() and schedules connector work. In ucsi_ccg_remove(), ucsi_destroy() frees uc->ucsi (kfree) before free_irq() is called, so a handler invocation already in flight may access the freed object after ucsi_destroy(). CPU 0 (remove) | CPU 1 (threaded IRQ) ucsi_destroy(uc->ucsi) | ccg_irq_handler() kfree(ucsi) // FREE | ucsi_notify_common(uc->ucsi) // USE Move free_irq() before ucsi_destroy() in the remove path. It is kept after ucsi_unregister(): ucsi_unregister() cancels connector work whose handler issues GET_CONNECTOR_STATUS through ucsi_send_command_common(), which waits for a completion that is signalled from the IRQ handler, so the IRQ must stay active until that work has been cancelled. The probe error path already orders free_irq() before ucsi_destroy(). This bug was found by static analysis.
