CVE-2026-98527: gpio: zynq: fix runtime PM leak on request error path
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: 0.22% (FIRST EPSS).
- Fixed version: Linux Linux 25c08be2a5e7715f19a6e02bbe9b0e5f01c77aac, 58a417a19d80141fff3abe6004e2e47285506e73, 60a76cdd92e25f576dc58d756a565760dde1f7a1; azl3 kernel 6.6.157.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.159.1-1.
- Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 25c08be2a5e7715f19a6e02bbe9b0e5f01c77aac, 58a417a19d80141fff3abe6004e2e47285506e73, 60a76cdd92e25f576dc58d756a565760dde1f7a1; azl3 kernel 6.6.157.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.159.1-1 or later.
Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it
Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gpio: zynq: fix runtime PM leak on request error path pm_runtime_get_sync() leaves the usage counter incremented even when it fails, and zynq_gpio_request() returns the error without dropping it. gpiolib does not call ->free() when ->request() fails, so zynq_gpio_free(), which holds the only matching pm_runtime_put(), never runs. The reference is leaked and the controller can no longer runtime-suspend, so its clock stays enabled. Switch to pm_runtime_resume_and_get(), which only increments the usage counter on success.
