CVSS 3.1
7.8 highCVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:HCVE-2024-50051
High (7.8) in linux linux kernel. EPSS 0.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: mpc52xx: Add cancel_work_sync before module remove
If we remove the module which will call mpc52xx_spi_remove
it will free 'ms' through spi_unregister_controller.
while the work ms->work will be used. The sequence of operations
that may lead to a UAF bug.
Fix it by ensuring that the work is canceled before proceeding with
the cleanup in mpc52xx_spi_remove.
