In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dpll: fix NULL pointer dereference in dpll_msg_add_pin_ref_sync() When a dpll_pin is shared across multiple dpll_device instances and those devices are being unregistered (e.g. during driver module removal), a NULL pointer dereference can occur in dpll_msg_add_pin_ref_sync(). This happens under the following conditions:
- A pin is registered with two or more dpll devices (dpll_A, dpll_B)
- The pin has ref_sync pairs with other pins
- During unregistration of dpll_A's pins, a ref_sync partner pin is unregistered first, removing it from dpll_A->pin_refs
- But since the partner pin is still registered with dpll_B, its dpll_refs is not empty, so dpll_pin_ref_sync_pair_del() does NOT run and the partner stays in the pin's ref_sync_pins xarray
- When the pin itself is then unregistered from dpll_A, the delete notification calls dpll_msg_add_pin_ref_sync() which finds the partner in ref_sync_pins, passes dpll_pin_available() (partner is still registered with dpll_B), but dpll_pin_on_dpll_priv(dpll_A, partner) returns NULL because partner was already removed from dpll_A->pin_refs
- The NULL priv pointer is passed to the driver's ref_sync_get
callback, which dereferences it
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000034

Fix this by skipping ref_sync pins whose priv pointer cannot be resolved
for the current dpll device.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's dpll subsystem. A local user could trigger a null pointer dereference in thedpll_msg_add_pin_ref_sync()function when adpll_pinis shared across multipledpll_deviceinstances and those devices are being unregistered. This vulnerability can lead to a system crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
Отчет
This issue affects the kernel DPLL (Deterministic PLL) subsystem. When shared dpll_pin objects are unregistered across multiple devices, dpll_msg_add_pin_ref_sync() can NULL-deref during module removal. Systems not using DPLL hardware are not affected.
