The leftover mhi_dev is then opened via local sysfs; sysfs_create_file(trigger_edl) is not fed by a remote protocol message.\nAC:H - The broken err_release_dev path runs only when sysfs_create_file(&mhi_dev->dev.kobj, &dev_attr_trigger_edl.attr) fails after device_add() succeeded. That helper fails on kernfs errors such as -ENOMEM; a later mhi_pci_probe retries device_add(\"mhi%d\") and gets -EEXIST instead, so the attacker cannot reliably re-enter this exact failure.\nPR:L - device_add() installs mhi_dev_groups before trigger_edl is created, so serial_number and oem_pk_hash exist as DEVICE_ATTR_RO (0444) on /sys/bus/mhi/devices/mhiN/. After probe failure those files remain; an unprivileged local user can read them with no CAP_SYS_ADMIN and no user-namespace capability.\nUI:N - The attacker reads the leftover /sys/bus/mhi/devices/mhiN/serial_number or oem_pk_hash (or writes soc_reset) themselves. No second user must plug the WWAN card, mount media, or confirm a prompt.\nS:U - On the failed mhi_pci_probe(), device_unbind_cleanup() frees mhi_pdev via devres_release_all() while the still-registered mhi_dev stays a child of the PCI device. That is a host-kernel use-after-free of struct mhi_controller, not a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox escape.\nC:H - Without device_del(), mhi_dev remains in sysfs with mhi_dev->mhi_cntrl pointing at mhi_pdev freed on probe failure. serial_number_show reads mhi_cntrl->serial_number from that freed object, and oem_pk_hash_show calls mhi_read_reg() on it, disclosing kernel memory.\nI:H - oem_pk_hash_show calls mhi_read_reg(), which invokes the freed mhi_cntrl->read_reg function pointer; soc_reset_store calls mhi_soc_reset() which uses mhi_cntrl->write_reg/reset. Replacing the freed struct mhi_controller yields an arbitrary call/write primitive for control-flow hijack.\nA:H - serial_number_show, oem_pk_hash_show, and soc_reset_store dereference the dangling mhi_cntrl and oops or panic. The leaked device also keeps the mhiN name while ida_free() reuses the index, so a later mhi_register_controller() device_add() fails until reboot."}]}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["drivers/bus/mhi/host/init.c"], "versions": [{"version": "17553ba8e19dee8770b3dcc597d49dcc3418f3b0", "lessThan": "7943dc67250fad6ceac0dd089c6ad5776e4be71d", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "17553ba8e19dee8770b3dcc597d49dcc3418f3b0", "lessThan": "4fb17a7c437f145353e93e6a9791f6db70e1cc63", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "17553ba8e19dee8770b3dcc597d49dcc3418f3b0", "lessThan": "4743959aa8d876b5b456a62e8a62eb770db7afe9", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "17553ba8e19dee8770b3dcc597d49dcc3418f3b0", "lessThan": "0d5b9e66591d4e2a4376ac82c8cda889a29ba3ee", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}]}, {"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["drivers/bus/mhi/host/init.c"], "versions": [{"version": "6.10", "status": "affected"}, {"version": "0", "lessThan": "6.10", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.12.110", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.18.52", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.2.6", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.2.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.3", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix"}]}], "cpeApplicability": [{"nodes": [{"operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.10", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.110"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.10", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.52"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.10", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2.6"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.10", "versionEndExcluding": "7.3"}]}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7943dc67250fad6ceac0dd089c6ad5776e4be71d"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4fb17a7c437f145353e93e6a9791f6db70e1cc63"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4743959aa8d876b5b456a62e8a62eb770db7afe9"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0d5b9e66591d4e2a4376ac82c8cda889a29ba3ee"}], "title": "bus: mhi: host: Fix controller cleanup on EDL sysfs failure", "x_generator": {"engine": "bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
