DescriptionCVE.org

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

spi: fsl-lpspi: terminate the RX channel on TX prepare failure path

When dmaengine_prep_slave_sg() fails for the TX channel, the error path terminates the TX DMA channel but leaves the RX channel running. Since the RX channel was already submitted and issued prior to preparing the TX descriptor, returning -EINVAL causes the SPI core to unmap the DMA buffers while the RX DMA engine continues writing to them, leading to potential memory corruption or use-after-free.

Terminate the RX channel before returning on the TX prepare failure path.

AnalysisAI

Use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's fsl-lpspi SPI driver can lead to memory corruption or arbitrary code execution with kernel privileges. A local attacker with high privileges on systems using the affected driver can trigger this flaw, potentially causing a kernel panic or full system compromise. At time of analysis, no public exploit or active exploitation is identified, and EPSS indicates low exploitation probability (0.22%).
