Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-80563)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause memory corruption.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free in the trigger debugfs write handler in drivers/gpio/gpio-sloppy-logic-analyzer.c when writing to the "trigger" debugfs file during device unbind. A local user can write to the debugfs interface while racing an unbind operation to cause memory corruption.

The race is reachable via /sys/bus/platform/drivers/gpio-sloppy-logic-analyzer/unbind.
