DescriptionNVD

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

spi: fix statistics allocation

The controller per-cpu statistics is not allocated until after the controller has been registered with driver core, which leaves a window where accessing the sysfs attributes can trigger a NULL-pointer dereference.

Fix this by moving the statistics allocation to controller allocation while tying its lifetime to that of the controller (rather than using implicit devres).

AnalysisAI

NULL-pointer dereference in Linux kernel SPI subsystem allows local denial of service via sysfs attribute access. The SPI controller's per-CPU statistics structure is not allocated until after the controller registers with the driver core, creating a race window where sysfs attribute reads can trigger a kernel panic. …
