Unknown
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the platform/x86 lg-laptop module mishandles LED resources. The event notification callback may access kbd_backlight even when it was not successfully registered with the LED subsystem, and acpi_remove() unregisters LED devices unconditionally.

Risk Assessment

Invalid references to unregistered LED devices may cause kernel errors or system instability on LG laptops.

Recommendation

Update the Linux kernel to a version containing the lg-laptop fix.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: platform/x86: lg-laptop: Fix LED resource handling The event notification callback might access kbd_backlight even when it was not successfully registered with the LED subsystem. The same happens inside acpi_remove(), where the LED devices are unregistered unconditionally. Fix this by tracking the availability of the kbd_backlight LED device and use devm_led_classdev_register() to let devres take care of unregistering the LED devices during removal. For this the parent device of the LED devices is changed to the native platform device.
