CVE-2026-93160: crypto: atmel-ecc - reject hardware ECDH without a public key
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: 0.17% (FIRST EPSS).
- Fixed version: Linux Linux 2b40bab362d2b598f34e5ccd4694cedc3c2553d4, 33241f198287960bba5fc2251400896762650bfa, 3ea8b780d68f02fe235c5051ce8ac4b4940b9259; azl3 kernel 6.6.152.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.157.1-1.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 2b40bab362d2b598f34e5ccd4694cedc3c2553d4, 33241f198287960bba5fc2251400896762650bfa, 3ea8b780d68f02fe235c5051ce8ac4b4940b9259; azl3 kernel 6.6.152.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.157.1-1 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: crypto: atmel-ecc - reject hardware ECDH without a public key The hardware ECDH path in atmel_ecdh_compute_shared_secret() uses the private key stored in the device. However, the public key is cached only after atmel_ecdh_set_secret() successfully generated that private key for the current tfm. atmel_ecdh_generate_public_key() already rejects requests when no public key is cached. Add the same check to atmel_ecdh_compute_shared_secret() to prevent the device from using a private key that was not generated for the current tfm.
