Any\nprobe failure after the admin tag set has been allocated unwinds through\nthe out_disable label and nvme_pci_free_ctrl(), neither of which releases\nthe pools, leaking the dma_pool objects.\n\nRelease the descriptor pools in the out_disable error path. It must not\nbe added to nvme_pci_free_ctrl(), as that would double-free against\nnvme_remove() on the normal teardown path.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/79fb405966edb5065234440d94cc75bfd7b01f41","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c25b6b28a35f9e36ce5dd6da5905bcddb2128707","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/cb144c2f67128abfa5c7ba33318617d19f192156"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:55:23.253742848+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-90233","score":0.00206,"percentile":0.10633,"date":"2026-10-25"},"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).
