GHSA-69W2-J9PM-3JXM
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-05-27 15:33 – Updated: 2026-05-27 15:33In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: intel-ish-hid: fix NULL-ptr-deref in ishtp_bus_remove_all_clients
During a warm reset flow, the cl->device pointer may be NULL if the reset occurs while clients are still being enumerated. Accessing cl->device->reference_count without a NULL check leads to a kernel panic.
This issue was identified during multi-unit warm reboot stress clycles. Add a defensive NULL check for cl->device to ensure stability under such intensive testing conditions.
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0000000000000000-0000000000000007] Workqueue: ish_fw_update_wq fw_reset_work_fn
