How to Fix CVE-2026-98210

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Software dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

mvn dependency:tree

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2026-98210, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Software in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than the patched release), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree command inspects the resolved dependency graph declared in your project's POM files; it does not perform automated security scanning or inspect runtime dynamic classpaths. Always verify runtime container classpaths and shaded JARs.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under General Security Weakness. In Software, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mmc: mxcmmc: cancel data work and watchdog on remove mxcmci_remove() frees the host through the devm tail, but neither it nor mmc_remove_host() drains the driver's own asynchronous state. host->watchdog, a 10 s timer armed on the DMA path in mxcmci_setup_data(), is deleted only by the DMA- and IRQ-complete paths, which the remove path does not explicitly drain; it can therefore fire after the host is freed and dereference it in mxcmci_watchdog(). host->datawork, armed from the IRQ handler on the PIO path, is not cancelled by the remove path either. Free the devm-registered IRQ, then cancel datawork and delete the watchdog in mxcmci_remove(), before dma_release_channel(). Freeing the IRQ first keeps a trailing handler from re-arming datawork between the cancel and the host free. Both callbacks are non-self-rearming. This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.
