CVE-2026-68333: dpaa2-switch: put MAC endpoint device on disconnect
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 0/100)
- 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: 0.18% (FIRST EPSS).
- Fixed version: Linux Linux 0e9a6811eb6198ab17538cd01fa155d133b238ed, 196f7301537814bef0f5915f87cd73d6d1235c19, 1f4ca61b7a93de3dfa5161bcd38ecb99bb091c38; azl3 kernel 6.6.143.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.150.1-1.
- Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 0e9a6811eb6198ab17538cd01fa155d133b238ed, 196f7301537814bef0f5915f87cd73d6d1235c19, 1f4ca61b7a93de3dfa5161bcd38ecb99bb091c38; azl3 kernel 6.6.143.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.150.1-1 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dpaa2-switch: put MAC endpoint device on disconnect fsl_mc_get_endpoint() returns the MAC endpoint device with a reference taken through device_find_child(). The switch port connect path stores that device in mac->mc_dev and keeps it for the lifetime of the connected MAC object. However, the disconnect path only closes the MAC and frees the dpaa2_mac object. It does not drop the endpoint device reference stored in mac->mc_dev, so every successful connect leaks that device reference when the MAC is later disconnected. Drop the endpoint device reference before freeing the dpaa2_mac object.
