However, the error path labels are out of order\nrelative to the registration sequence.\n\nSpecifically:\n1. If asus_wmi_custom_fan_curve_init() fails, the driver jumps to\n   fail_custom_fan_curve. Because this label is placed below fail_sysfs,\n   it bypasses the cleanup calls for the input device and sysfs groups,\n   which were successfully registered before, leaking those resources.\n2. If asus_screenpad_init() fails, the driver jumps to fail_screenpad.\n   Because fail_screenpad is placed below fail_backlight, it bypasses the\n   cleanup calls for backlight and rfkill, leaking those resources.\n\nFix these resource leaks by reordering the error path labels in\nasus_wmi_add() to match the exact reverse order of the resource\nallocations.","score":7,"severity":"high","published":"2026-09-17T16:11:23.852Z","modified":"2026-10-30T12:36:01.447Z","withdrawn":false,"knownExploited":false,"affected":[],"products":[{"vendor":"Linux","name":"Linux","platforms":[],"versions":[{"version":"0f0ac158d28ff78e75c334e869b1cb8e69372a1f","status":"affected","lessThan":"72d792c8053f238ae541fdaa90e609548509b65f","versionType":"git"},{"version":"0f0ac158d28ff78e75c334e869b1cb8e69372a1f","status":"affected","lessThan":"959ed35f8c8f07b8dd43c3f917a43ae2f77e4471","versionType":"git"},{"version":"0f0ac158d28ff78e75c334e869b1cb8e69372a1f","status":"affected","lessThan":"8d5999608da60db45949e5459f74f581cdaacd04","versionType":"git"},{"version":"0f0ac158d28ff78e75c334e869b1cb8e69372a1f","status":"affected","lessThan":"8410cd2690d463b60527d00ac8cffea2d5a041f6","versionType":"git"},{"version":"0f0ac158d28ff78e75c334e869b1cb8e69372a1f","status":"affected","lessThan":"3308b8c5f5a28403611a2f5a46f06aabe4f0c661","versionType":"git"},{"version":"0f0ac158d28ff78e75c334e869b1cb8e69372a1f","status":"affected","lessThan":"ef3daa2b84a2b8499ce9e2ce1c865dca36d39f95","versionType":"git"}],"defaultStatus":"unaffected","cpes":[],"source":"Linux","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-93116"},{"vendor":"Linux","name":"Linux","platforms":[],"versions":[{"version":"5.17","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","status":"unaffected","lessThan":"5.17","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.191","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.160","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.114","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.57","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2.6","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"7.2.*","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.3","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"*","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}],"defaultStatus":"affected","cpes":[],"source":"Linux","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-93116"}],"remediation":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/72d792c8053f238ae541fdaa90e609548509b65f","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/959ed35f8c8f07b8dd43c3f917a43ae2f77e4471","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8d5999608da60db45949e5459f74f581cdaacd04","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8410cd2690d463b60527d00ac8cffea2d5a041f6","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3308b8c5f5a28403611a2f5a46f06aabe4f0c661","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ef3daa2b84a2b8499ce9e2ce1c865dca36d39f95"],"sources":[{"name":"CVE","id":"CVE-2026-93116","modified":"2026-10-30T12:36:01.447Z","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-93116"}],"assessments":[{"source":"Linux","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7}],"sourceAffected":[],"observedAt":"2026-10-30T13:55:02.602Z","kev":{"status":"not-listed","checkedAt":"2026-11-14T23:30:30.969Z"},"coverage":[{"source":"NVD","status":"not-checked"},{"source":"GHSA","status":"not-checked"},{"source":"EUVD","status":"not-checked"},{"source":"EPSS","status":"not-checked"}],"evidence":[],"aiSummary":null}
