DescriptionCVE.org

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

net: emac: Fix NULL pointer dereference in emac_probe

Move devm_request_irq() after devm_platform_ioremap_resource() so that dev->emacp is mapped before the interrupt handler can fire. An early interrupt hitting emac_irq() would dereference the NULL dev->emacp and crash.

Also remove redundant error message. devm_platform_ioremap_resource() already returns an error message with dev_err_probe().

AnalysisAI

NULL pointer dereference in the Linux kernel's EMAC (Ethernet MAC) network driver during device probe can crash the kernel, resulting in complete system availability loss on affected hardware. The fault lies in emac_probe() where devm_request_irq() is called before dev->emacp is mapped via devm_platform_ioremap_resource(), leaving a race window during initialization in which any hardware interrupt invoking emac_irq() will dereference a NULL pointer and trigger a kernel panic. …
