In this case\nthe irq-core will shutdown the interrupt with the \"nobody cared\"\nmessage.\n\nIntroduce imx_mu_con_priv::shutdown to signal that the channel is\nshutting down. This flag is set with the lock held (by\nimx_mu_xcr_clr_shut()). The unmask side uses imx_mu_xcr_set_act() which\nonly enables the event if the channel has not been shutdown and\nserialises on the same lock.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-10-23T11:54:15.01+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-23T11:54:15.01+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"Linux","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"product\": \"Linux\",\n                    \"vendor\": \"Linux\",\n                    \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\",\n                    \"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\",\n                    \"programFiles\": [\n                        \"drivers/mailbox/imx-mailbox.c\"\n                    ],\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1fc7321cac2\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"02273054b2e94e53065ea5644265bb9d8f7ee2a7\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"git\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1fc7321cac2\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"944d8509c2220a2313d4a094a646507929fb6f8d\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"git\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1fc7321cac2\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"5ccea7eacb7786c358833634f45700365f6c1d99\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"git\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"0\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"6.12.111\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"0\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"6.18.53\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"},{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"Linux","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"product\": \"Linux\",\n                    \"vendor\": \"Linux\",\n                    \"defaultStatus\": \"affected\",\n                    \"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\",\n                    \"programFiles\": [\n                        \"drivers/mailbox/imx-mailbox.c\"\n                    ],\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"6.12.111\",\n                            \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"6.12.*\",\n                            \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"6.18.53\",\n                            \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"6.18.*\",\n                            \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"7.2\",\n                            \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"*\",\n                            \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"original_commit_for_fix\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"}],"metrics":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/02273054b2e94e53065ea5644265bb9d8f7ee2a7","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/944d8509c2220a2313d4a094a646507929fb6f8d","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5ccea7eacb7786c358833634f45700365f6c1d99"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-98903","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-98903","identifiers":["CVE-2026-98903"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[]}
