CVE-2026-93062: wifi: iwlwifi: guard against division by zero in iwl_dbg_tlv_alloc_fragments

Published Sep 17, 2026
·
Updated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: iwlwifi: guard against division by zero in iwldbgtlvallocfragments

Make sure we don't end-up with a numfrags = 0 situation. For that, check that the required size is not 0 and put a checker on numfrags as well.

Frequently Asked Questions

1

Which systems are potentially affected?

Systems running a Linux kernel with the iwlwifi driver are potentially affected. The provided information does not identify specific kernel versions or affected Intel wireless hardware.

2

What condition triggers the flaw?

The issue occurs when iwl_dbg_tlv_alloc_fragments reaches a state where the required size is zero, resulting in num_frags being zero and creating a division-by-zero condition.

3

What does the available fix change?

The fix checks that the required size is not zero and adds validation for num_frags, preventing a zero-fragment calculation.
