- Also known as: EUVD-2026-118416
- Severity: no CVSS score reported
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Published: 2026-11-06 · Updated: 2026-11-06

CVE-2026-90975 is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog. No public exploit code is tracked. It affects RtUsbA64.sys; no fixed version is listed yet.

## Summary

Realtek's RtUsbA64.sys USB audio driver contains a flaw that lets a local user with low privileges send crafted requests through a kernel control interface. This can give the attacker kernel-mode read and write access, which can be used to escalate privileges and run arbitrary code in the kernel.

Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Affected

- Realtek RtUsbA64.sys: 6.3.9600.2393

## Description

A vulnerability in Realtek's RtUsbA64.sys USB audio driver allows a local, low-privileged user to abuse a kernel I/O control (IOCTL) interface that acts on a caller-supplied user-mode pointer without proper validation or capture. By issuing crafted property requests an attacker can obtain kernel-mode read and write access, which can be leveraged for local privilege escalation and arbitrary kernel code execution.
