However, because the drvdata was already set,\nsub-drivers like cros_ec_typec can still retrieve the stale pointer via the\nplatform device. This leads to a use-after-free when cros_ec_typec attempts\nto access &typec->ec->ec->dev on a device that has already been released.\nMove dev_set_drvdata() to ensure that the pointer is only made available\nonce all initialization steps have succeeded.\n\n sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/class/chromeos/cros_ec'\n Call trace:\n  sysfs_do_create_link_sd+0x94/0xdc\n  sysfs_create_link+0x30/0x44\n  device_add_class_symlinks+0x90/0x13c\n  device_add+0xf0/0x50c\n  ec_device_probe+0x150/0x4f0\n  platform_probe+0xa0/0xe0\n ...\n BUG: KASAN: invalid-access in __memcpy+0x44/0x230\n Write at addr f5ffff809e2d33ac by task kworker/u32:5/125\n Pointer tag: [f5], memory tag: [fe]\n Tainted : [W]=WARN, [O]=OOT_MODULE\n Hardware name: Google Navi unprovisioned 0x7FFFFFFF/sku0 board/sku3\n Workqueue: events_unbound deferred_probe_work_func\n Call trace:\n  __memcpy+0x44/0x230\n  cros_ec_check_features+0x60/0xcc [cros_ec_proto]\n  cros_typec_probe+0xe8/0x6e0 [cros_ec_typec]\n  platform_probe+0xa0/0xe0","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.0},"cwes":["CWE-476","CWE-416"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/24522713034d521ea4b5f5f36342e2b2f7e73bd6","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/257203d83204b192d1265a916b42ca0d499bb117","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/729ae27dc2503a7c1f92da1859efb45da03e4fa0","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8b2c1d41bc36c100b38ce5ee6def246c527eaf8a","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b5f41d5bf08e7b1b14fa0bd640975e6d78dc006d"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-21T03:56:58.798400159+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-64420","score":0.00119,"percentile":0.01744,"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).
