In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: shared: fix use-after-free bug when adding shared proxies
The GPIO lookup table can stay alive for longer than the kobject whose
name string's address we're assigning to lookup->dev_id. Fix a potential
UAF by duplicating the string.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) subsystem. A use-after-free vulnerability occurs when adding shared proxies because a lookup table can outlive the device object whose name string is referenced. A local attacker could exploit this flaw to cause memory corruption, leading to a system crash and Denial of Service (DoS).
Отчет
This vulnerability is rated as having Moderate severity because exploitation requires local access to trigger shared GPIO device registration and removal, and the blast radius is limited to a denial of service via a kernel crash. GPIO subsystem shared proxies are primarily relevant to embedded and specialized hardware platforms rather than typical enterprise cloud and server deployments. In standard Red Hat environments, unprivileged users do not have direct access to manipulate the device objects necessary to trigger this condition.
