CVE-2026-43175 is fixed in 14 products on 1 platform, first by DEBIAN-CVE-2026-43175, released May 15, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine. - Web page: https://patchblox.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-43175 - Priority: Routine - CVSS: 5.5 (medium) - EPSS: 0.0013 - CISA KEV: not listed - Exploited (vendor report): no - Publicly disclosed: no - Published: May 6, 2026 ## Description In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: clk: rs9: Reserve 8 struct clk_hw slots for for 9FGV0841 The 9FGV0841 has 8 outputs and registers 8 struct clk_hw, make sure there are 8 slots for those newly registered clk_hw pointers, else there is going to be out of bounds write when pointers 4..7 are set into struct rs9_driver_data .clk_dif[4..7] field. Since there are other structure members past this struct clk_hw pointer array, writing to .clk_dif[4..7] fields corrupts both the struct rs9_driver_data content and data around it, sometimes without crashing the kernel. However, the kernel does surely crash when the driver is unbound or during suspend. Fix this, increase the struct clk_hw pointer array size to the maximum output count of 9FGV0841, which is the biggest chip that is supported by this driver. ## Where it's fixed | Platform | Product | Fixed in | Fix | Released | |---|---|---|---|---| | Linux | dtb-aarch64 opensuse-leap 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [OPENSUSE-SU-2026:21388-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/opensuse-su-2026-21388-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-64kb opensuse-leap 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [OPENSUSE-SU-2026:21388-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/opensuse-su-2026-21388-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-64kb sles 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [SUSE-SU-2026:22835-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/suse-su-2026-22835-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-azure opensuse-leap 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [OPENSUSE-SU-2026:21388-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/opensuse-su-2026-21388-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-azure sles 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [SUSE-SU-2026:22835-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/suse-su-2026-22835-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-default opensuse-leap 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [OPENSUSE-SU-2026:21388-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/opensuse-su-2026-21388-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-default sles 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [SUSE-SU-2026:22835-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/suse-su-2026-22835-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-default-base opensuse-leap 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1.160000.2.17 | [OPENSUSE-SU-2026:21388-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/opensuse-su-2026-21388-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-default-base sles 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1.160000.2.17 | [SUSE-SU-2026:22835-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/suse-su-2026-22835-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-docs opensuse-leap 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [OPENSUSE-SU-2026:21388-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/opensuse-su-2026-21388-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-docs sles 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [SUSE-SU-2026:22835-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/suse-su-2026-22835-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-kvmsmall opensuse-leap 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [OPENSUSE-SU-2026:21388-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/opensuse-su-2026-21388-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-kvmsmall sles 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [SUSE-SU-2026:22835-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/suse-su-2026-22835-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-obs-build opensuse-leap 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [OPENSUSE-SU-2026:21388-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/opensuse-su-2026-21388-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-obs-qa opensuse-leap 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [OPENSUSE-SU-2026:21388-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/opensuse-su-2026-21388-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-obs-qa sles 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [SUSE-SU-2026:22835-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/suse-su-2026-22835-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-rt opensuse-leap 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [OPENSUSE-SU-2026:21388-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/opensuse-su-2026-21388-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-source opensuse-leap 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [OPENSUSE-SU-2026:21388-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/opensuse-su-2026-21388-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-source sles 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [SUSE-SU-2026:22835-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/suse-su-2026-22835-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-syms opensuse-leap 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [OPENSUSE-SU-2026:21388-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/opensuse-su-2026-21388-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-syms sles 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [SUSE-SU-2026:22835-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/suse-su-2026-22835-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-zfcpdump opensuse-leap 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [OPENSUSE-SU-2026:21388-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/opensuse-su-2026-21388-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-zfcpdump sles 16.0 | 6.12.0-160000.36.1 | [SUSE-SU-2026:22835-1](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/suse-su-2026-22835-1.md) | Jul 21, 2026 | | Linux | linux Debian 13.5 (trixie) | 6.12.85-1 | [DEBIAN-CVE-2026-43175](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/debian-cve-2026-43175.md) | May 15, 2026 | | Linux | linux Debian 14 | 6.19.6-1 | [DEBIAN-CVE-2026-43175](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/debian-cve-2026-43175.md) | May 15, 2026 | --- Data as of 2026-11-09T01:18:40Z UTC.
