However, it is invoked from the MIPI I3C HCI IRQ\nhandler, which cannot take bus.lock.  This allows concurrent device\naddition/removal in the I3C core to modify the list while it is being\ntraversed, potentially leading to use-after-free or crashes.\n\nRemove the dependency on the bus device list and introduce a dedicated\nlookup table.  Add an ibi_devs[] array indexed by DAT entry, maintained\nunder hci->lock.  Update the array when IBIs are enabled or disabled,\nso that it always reflects the set of devices allowed to generate IBIs.\nAlso update when IBIs are freed, to cover the corner case when an IBI is\nfreed without first being disabled (e.g. oldedev in\ni3c_master_add_i3c_dev_locked()).\n\nMove i3c_hci_addr_to_dev() into core.c, reimplement it using the new\narray, and add a lockdep assertion to enforce that hci->lock is held\nby callers.\n\nDemote a message in PIO and DMA IBI handling, from an error to a debug\nmessage, because there is a race window when the condition can arise\nnormally.","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":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/308d7951ca221e8c8896b563c4e98d28a4400f2e","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/650716f23eac488c6696babdc7805f6a6b7427ad","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8f851cab401c28287d536b1347d76f6e219c0db6"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:48:17.459049833+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-72454","score":0.00168,"percentile":0.06139,"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).
