| Subject: CVE-2024-26866: spi: lpspi: Avoid potential use-after-free in probe() |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| spi: lpspi: Avoid potential use-after-free in probe() |
| |
| fsl_lpspi_probe() is allocating/disposing memory manually with |
| spi_alloc_host()/spi_alloc_target(), but uses |
| devm_spi_register_controller(). In case of error after the latter call the |
| memory will be explicitly freed in the probe function by |
| spi_controller_put() call, but used afterwards by "devm" management outside |
| probe() (spi_unregister_controller() <- devm_spi_unregister() below). |
| |
| Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000070 |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
