This avoids\n  already some racy accesses.\n- In addition, now we try to check the state of the capture PCM stream\n  that may be stopped in this function, which was the major pain point\n  leading to UAF.","title":"Description of the CVE"},{"category":"legal_disclaimer","text":"CSAF 2.0 data is provided by SUSE under the Creative Commons License 4.0 with Attribution (CC-BY-4.0).","title":"Terms of use"}],"publisher":{"category":"vendor","contact_details":"https://www.suse.com/support/security/contact/","name":"SUSE Product Security Team","namespace":"https://www.suse.com/"},"references":[{"category":"external","summary":"CVE-2026-23191","url":"https://www.suse.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-23191"},{"category":"external","summary":"SUSE Security Ratings","url":"https://www.suse.com/support/security/rating/"}],"title":"SUSE CVE CVE-2026-23191","tracking":{"current_release_date":"2026-02-16T00:25:17Z","generator":{"date":"2026-02-16T00:25:17Z","engine":{"name":"cve-database.git:bin/generate-csaf-vex.pl","version":"1"}},"id":"CVE-2026-23191","initial_release_date":"2026-02-16T00:25:17Z","revision_history":[{"date":"2026-02-16T00:25:17Z","number":"2","summary":"references added,severity changed from  to not set"}],"status":"interim","version":"2"}}}
