How to Fix CVE-2026-93142

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-2026-93142, 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: thermal/drivers/rcar: Fix error checking in probe() This code accidentally calls thermal_zone_device_enable() before checking whether thermal_zone_device_register_with_trips() failed. Move the call until later to avoid an error pointer dereference of "priv->zone". The driver works differently depending on if we are using OF thermal or not. We use thermal_add_hwmon_sysfs() if we are using OF thermal and call thermal_zone_device_enable() if not. We can share same error check for if either of these fail. Moving the thermal_zone_device_enable() call is a bit cleaner as well. The original code used a three step process to cleanup: 1. Call thermal_zone_device_unregister() to cleanup. 2. Set priv->zone to an error pointer to preserve the error code. 3. Set priv->zone to NULL to avoid a second call to thermal_zone_device_unregister() in the rcar_thermal_remove() function. Now we can just do a direct goto error_unregister and rcar_thermal_remove() handles the cleanup properly.
