CVE-2026-45869 |
|
| Software afectado | LINUX KERNEL |
|
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: power: supply: wm97xx: Fix NULL pointer dereference in power_supply_changed() In `probe()`, `request_irq()` is called before allocating/registering a `power_supply` handle. If an interrupt is fired between the call to `request_irq()` and `power_supply_register()`, the `power_supply` handle will be used uninitialized in `power_supply_changed()` in `wm97xx_bat_update()` (triggered from the interrupt handler). This will lead to a `NULL` pointer dereference since Fix this racy `NULL` pointer dereference by making sure the IRQ is requested _after_ the registration of the `power_supply` handle. Since the IRQ is the last thing requests in the `probe()` now, remove the error path for freeing it. Instead add one for unregistering the `power_supply` handle when IRQ request fails. |
