How to Fix CVE-2026-90127

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-2026-90127, 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: virtio: rtc: time out alarm requests RTC class operations run with rtc_device.ops_lock held. The virtio RTC alarm requests currently wait without a timeout for the device to return their requestq buffers. On surprise removal, virtio-pci marks the virtqueues broken before unregistering the virtio device. If an alarm request is waiting when the device stops responding, viortc_remove() blocks in viortc_class_stop() while trying to acquire ops_lock. The request cannot complete and device removal hangs until the waiting task is signalled. Use the same 60-second timeout as clock read requests for alarm reads, alarm programming, and alarm interrupt enable requests. The existing message reference counting keeps a timed-out request alive until a late response or device teardown.
