Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Improper Initialization (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-72133)
CWE-ID: CWE-665 - Improper Initialization
CVSSv4: 6.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a local attacker to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to improper initialization in the spi-uniphier driver interrupt handling logic when registering an interrupt handler before initializing the associated completion. A local attacker can trigger an interrupt during driver initialization to cause a denial of service.
This may lead to complete() being called on an uninitialized completion, resulting in undefined behavior.
Remediation
Install update from vendor's website.
