{"cve":"CVE-2026-64429","nvd":{"published":"2026-07-25T10:17:27.070","modified":"2026-09-03T18:32:57.547","status":"Analyzed","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ngpio: eic-sprd: use raw_spinlock_t in the irq startup path\n\nsprd_eic_irq_unmask() enables the GPIO IRQ and then updates controller\nstate through sprd_eic_update(), which takes sprd_eic->lock with\nspin_lock_irqsave().  The callback can be reached from irq_startup()\nwhile setting up a requested IRQ.  That path is not sleepable, but on\nPREEMPT_RT a regular spinlock_t becomes a sleeping lock.\n\nThis issue was found by our static analysis tool and then manually\nreviewed against the current tree.\n\nThe grounded PoC kept the request_threaded_irq() -> __setup_irq() ->\nirq_startup() -> sprd_eic_irq_unmask() -> sprd_eic_update() carrier and\nused the original spin_lock_irqsave(&sprd_eic->lock) edge.

The\nlocked section only serializes MMIO register updates and does not contain\nsleepable operations, so keeping it non-sleeping is appropriate for the\nirqchip callbacks.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":5.5},"cwes":["CWE-667"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/19d63fd528719ce7d06d9aeb88d25b7d6478198a","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4750909a40da9016185e0ac991510a278cecb1e7","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/581ac2ad001ff1128931191f249a7f2074672b7a","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5c3c9ec1172a4c3384b8b800b3a8896cc2c1b20e","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6112fba4150039ccd90e29f2d1b788c73ad7b3dd"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:46:40.600842820+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-64429","score":0.00095,"percentile":0.00591,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
