CVSS 3.1
5.5 mediumCVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:HCVE-2026-53344
Medium (5.5) in linux linux kernel. EPSS 0.1% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: mcp23s08: Initialize mcp->dev and mcp->addr before regmap init
Regmap initialization triggers regcache_maple_populate() which attempts
SPI read to populate cache. SPI read requires mcp->dev and mcp->addr to
be set, without them, NULL pointer dereference occurs during probe.
Move initialization before mcp23s08_spi_regmap_init() call.
