Now that\n__dpll_device_change_ntf() is exported for callers that already\nhold dpll_lock, use it directly and remove the change_work\ninfrastructure entirely.\n\nThis eliminates a race condition where change_work could be\nre-scheduled after cancel_work_sync() during device teardown,\npotentially causing the handler to dereference a freed or NULL\ndpll_dev pointer.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.8},"cwes":["CWE-362"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d733f519f6443540f8359461a34e3b0042099bbe","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e7a33807fb3f87a855993474ac21684ce105927b"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-21T03:43:09.190223697+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-63977","score":0.00127,"percentile":0.02394,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
