# CVE-2026-80727

> 3.1 LOW

## Beschreibung

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

x86/mce: Set up the polling timer before CMCI discovery

I hit the following on one of my machines:

  mce: CPU0 BANK15 CMCI inherited storm
  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  ODEBUG: assert_init not available (active state 0) object: (____ptrval____) object type: timer_list hint: 0x0
  WARNING: lib/debugobjects.c:632 at debug_object_assert_init+0x178/0x230, CPU#0: swapper/0/0
  CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 7.2.0-rc5 #3 PREEMPTLAZY
  RIP: 0010:debug_object_assert_init+0x18f/0x230
  Call Trace:
   
   __mod_timer
   mce_timer_kick
   cmci_discover
   intel_init_cmci
   mce_intel_feature_init
   mcheck_cpu_init
   identify_cpu
   identify_boot_cpu
   arch_cpu_finalize_init
   start_kernel

A second splat follows right after, from timer_setup() finding that same
timer already queued:

  ODEBUG: init active (active state 0) object: (____ptrval____) object type: timer_list hint: stub_timer+0x0/0x10

This is happening because CMCI storm detection is trying to modify the timer
before latter was properly set up.

Set up the timer first. __mcheck_cpu_setup_timer() only calls timer_setup(),
and depends on neither the generic nor the vendor init.
