CVE-2026-41516 is a low-severity flaw (CVSS 2.5) affecting op-tee. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.

OP-TEE is a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) designed as companion to a non-secure Linux kernel running on Arm; Cortex-A cores using the TrustZone technology. Starting in version 4.5.0 and prior to version 4.11.0, the RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 decryption implementation in the Hisilicon HPRE crypto driver uses non-constant-time `memcmp()` for label hash verification and has multiple distinguishable error paths. This creates a Bleichenbacher-style padding
