| Subject: CVE-2025-21685: platform/x86: lenovo-yoga-tab2-pro-1380-fastcharger: fix serdev race |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| platform/x86: lenovo-yoga-tab2-pro-1380-fastcharger: fix serdev race |
| |
| The yt2_1380_fc_serdev_probe() function calls devm_serdev_device_open() |
| before setting the client ops via serdev_device_set_client_ops(). This |
| ordering can trigger a NULL pointer dereference in the serdev controller's |
| receive_buf handler, as it assumes serdev->ops is valid when |
| SERPORT_ACTIVE is set. |
| |
| This is similar to the issue fixed in commit 5e700b384ec1 |
| ("platform/chrome: cros_ec_uart: properly fix race condition") where |
| devm_serdev_device_open() was called before fully initializing the |
| device. |
| |
| Fix the race by ensuring client ops are set before enabling the port via |
| devm_serdev_device_open(). |
| |
| Note, serdev_device_set_baudrate() and serdev_device_set_flow_control() |
| calls should be after the devm_serdev_device_open() call. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2025-21685 to this issue. |

| 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: |
| https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3f67e07873df3c6d9ce2582260b83732e1d3a40b |
