It turned out\nthat the jiffies clocksource is used in early boot before it is registered,\nwhich leaves the max_delta_raw field at zero. That causes the read out to\nbe clamped to the max delta of 0, which means time is not making progress.\n\nCure it by ensuring that it is initialized before its first usage in\ntimekeeping_init().","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/75b478096c6bbf57fe366f7f0a8cd5365043ffaa","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/cd25e9819620aa1325897912cfb4dd89303325fe","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f24df84cbe05e4471c04ac4b921fc0340bbc7752","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/fe9bdea65ba231fcfb155031628bb1e8491b5fe0"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:47:54.990491175+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-68092","score":0.00209,"percentile":0.11042,"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).
