# CVE-2026-98833: mtd: core: call _get_device() with the master MTD CVE-2026-98833 is fixed in 39 products on 1 platform, first by DEBIAN-CVE-2026-98833, released October 19, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine. - Web page: https://patchblox.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-98833 - Priority: Routine - CVSS: 4.4 (Moderate) - EPSS: 0.0017 - CISA KEV: not listed - Exploited (vendor report): no - Publicly disclosed: no - Published: Oct 18, 2026 - Vendor advisory: https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-98833 ## Description In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mtd: core: call _get_device() with the master MTD __get_mtd_device() calls the master's _get_device() callback with mtd, which may be a partition. __put_mtd_device() passes the master. This breaks gluebi partitions because gluebi_get_device() uses container_of() and therefore requires the master MTD. Pass the master to _get_device(), matching _put_device(). ## Where it's fixed | Platform | Product | Fixed in | Fix | Released | |---|---|---|---|---| | Linux | bpftool6.12 amzn 2023 |
