# CVE-2026-68367: usb: gadget: f_tcm: synchronize delayed set_alt with teardown CVE-2026-68367 is fixed in 34 products on 1 platform, first by DEBIAN-CVE-2026-68367, released August 11, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine. - Web page: https://patchblox.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-68367 - Priority: Routine - CVSS: 5.5 (Moderate) - EPSS: 0.0018 - CISA KEV: not listed - Exploited (vendor report): no - Publicly disclosed: no - Published: Aug 10, 2026 - Vendor advisory: https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-68367 ## Description In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: f_tcm: synchronize delayed set_alt with teardown The f_tcm set_alt() path defers endpoint setup to a work item and completes the delayed status response from process context. The delayed work uses f_tcm private state and may complete the setup request after disconnect or function teardown has already moved on. Cancel and drain the delayed set_alt work when the function is unbound or freed. For disable paths, which are reached under the composite device lock, use a small state machine and a non-sleeping cancellation path instead of cancel_work_sync(). If the work is already running, mark it cancelled and let the worker own the cleanup; otherwise tcm_disable() can cancel the queued work and clean up immediately. Also serialize the final delayed-status completion with the cancellation check while holding the composite device lock. This prevents a disconnect from clearing delayed_status while the worker is about to complete the control request. Validation reproduced this kernel report: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in tcm_delayed_set_alt+0x6c/0xef0 Call Trace: dump_stack_lvl+0x66/0xa0 print_report+0xce/0x630 ?
