CVE-2026-90428 — iommu/tegra241-cmdqv: Don't run the error ISR before probe sets up vintfs
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/tegra241-cmdqv: Don't run the error ISR before probe sets up vintfs __tegra241_cmdqv_probe() requests the error IRQ before it has allocated the cmdqv->vintfs array and set cmdqv->num_vintfs. A CMDQV left enabled with a latched error across a kexec fires the IRQ as soon as it is requested, and tegra241_cmdqv_isr() then walks the uninitialized cmdqv->vintfs array. Request the IRQ only after cmdqv->vintfs is allocated and zeroed, so that a latched interrupt firing early runs the ISR against a valid array of NULL slots that it safely skips.
Who exploits it and how urgent it is
A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.
How the score was calculated
- EPSS 0.2% (30-day exploitation probability)+2
The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).
Triage
Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.
Remediation
Fixes and mitigations documented by the sources — linked to the original advisory.
No fix documented by the sources we poll. That does not mean none exists: check the vendor advisory.
First 24 hours
Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.
- Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (Linux Linux).
- No fix documented in the sources: reduce exposure and monitor the vendor advisory.
- Search available logs for exploit probes, errors and authentication anomalies.

What should defenders know first?
CVE-2026-90428 is "iommu/tegra241-cmdqv: Don't run the error ISR before probe sets up vintfs", rated Unknown. It affects Linux (Linux); versions are in the scope table. It is not in CISA KEV, which does not rule out exploitation. EPSS 0.21% estimates the probability of exploitation in 30 days; neither replaces your asset context. First verify whether exposed or business-critical assets run the affected versions, apply vendor fixes or mitigations, and preserve logs for review.
