CVE-2026-43363

CVSS v3.1

5.5

Medium

VectorAV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description An issue exists in the x86 APIC (Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller) implementation during resume from s2ram (Suspend to RAM). Firmware may re-enable x2apic mode upon wake-up, even if the kernel had disabled it during boot due to lack of IRQ remapping support or other reasons. This creates a mismatch where the kernel continues using the xapic interface while the hardware operates in x2apic mode, leading to system hangs. This occurs specifically on bare metal systems using defconfig and s2ram.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
