CVE-2026-93092

Unknown
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

In the Linux kernel's ARM SCMI subsystem, a vulnerability exists where the device notifier is not unregistered before the active_protocols IDR is destroyed. This can lead to a race condition where the notifier callback attempts to access the already freed IDR structure.

Risk Assessment

The vulnerability could lead to system crashes or unpredictable behavior during SCMI module removal, potentially enabling a DoS attack.

Recommendation

Apply the patch that unregisters the notifier before destroying the IDR. Update the kernel to a version containing this fix.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: firmware: arm_scmi: Unregister device notifier before IDR teardown The requested-devices notifier looks up protocol fwnodes from the active_protocols IDR. During remove, unregister the notifier before releasing and destroying active_protocols so no notifier callback can race with the IDR teardown. Keep the bus notifier registered until after the protocol state is torn down, matching the existing remove ordering for SCMI bus users.
