The dangling of_node is created only on the local as3722-regulator platform probe path (I2C MFD as3722_i2c_probe → mfd_add_devices → as3722_regulator_probe → as3722_get_regulator_dt_data); the onboard AMS AS3722 PMIC is not reached via network packets, Bluetooth, or USB enumeration.\nAC:L - On affected Tegra boards the required regulators DT child exists, so of_get_child_by_name() then the premature of_node_put() runs deterministically at every probe with no race; with OF_OVERLAY (arm64 defconfig) the node can be freed while the device still holds the pointer.\nPR:N - tegra_defconfig builds MFD_AS3722 and REGULATOR_AS3722 in, so the vulnerable probe runs automatically at boot on Chromebooks (nyan), Jetson TK1, Toradex Apalis, and similar embedded systems with no capability check; an attacker only needs to power-cycle a shared kiosk or device.\nUI:N - Driver initialization and the of_node_put() run unattended during kernel boot on affected hardware; no victim action such as mounting a filesystem, opening a device, or plugging in USB is required.\nS:U - The use-after-free corrupts kernel device_node/kobject memory on the host; AS3722 is a board PMIC regulator driver and does not cross a VM, IOMMU, or other security-authority boundary.\nC:H - The premature of_node_put() leaves pdev->dev.of_node dangling; a later put on device release or DT overlay teardown can free the device_node while the driver and OF core still use it, enabling reads of reallocated slab memory.\nI:H - Use-after-free of the device_node heap object (kobject, fwnode, property and parent/child links) can be turned into an arbitrary write and control-flow hijack via heap reuse, matching scoring guidance that UAF is Integrity High.\nA:H - Dereferencing the dangling of_node during regulator registration, sysfs, overlay removal, or platform_device_release() can oops or panic the kernel, including at boot on systems where AS3722 supplies CPU and core rails."}]}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/regulator/as3722-regulator.c"],"versions":[{"version":"bc407334e9a6a745de5360395282beb2690adf48","lessThan":"d9b1407477fb736978b04108073180ca84958936","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"bc407334e9a6a745de5360395282beb2690adf48","lessThan":"bd5606e9da1a01a61c7d2f5df36243414a0142be","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"bc407334e9a6a745de5360395282beb2690adf48","lessThan":"0bde4f140e90f87ebd49cd9c884c4bb3f19fe931","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"bc407334e9a6a745de5360395282beb2690adf48","lessThan":"eda08b6bd64f01ca9defbfcc9e0c3e30f46cfc02","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"bc407334e9a6a745de5360395282beb2690adf48","lessThan":"d3c1316d84e0a036890b00ae6e4c0b0b80f70c25","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"bc407334e9a6a745de5360395282beb2690adf48","lessThan":"95342d26f9c6b68a46ab57fa48428a3c4a423dd7","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"bc407334e9a6a745de5360395282beb2690adf48","lessThan":"8648e29e5c01b6b677c704049189287e27255ccb","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"bc407334e9a6a745de5360395282beb2690adf48","lessThan":"f9324d670ae0b88cbfb0aa48fcaefa5baeb8da4c","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/regulator/as3722-regulator.c"],"versions":[{"version":"3.13","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"3.13","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.10.270","lessThanOrEqual":"5.10.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.15.221","lessThanOrEqual":"5.15.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.188","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.157","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.109","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.50","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2.4","lessThanOrEqual":"7.2.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.3-rc1","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":"3.13","versionEndExcluding":"5.10.270"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.13","versionEndExcluding":"5.15.221"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.13","versionEndExcluding":"6.1.188"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.13","versionEndExcluding":"6.6.157"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.13","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.109"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.13","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.50"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.13","versionEndExcluding":"7.2.4"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.13","versionEndExcluding":"7.3-rc1"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d9b1407477fb736978b04108073180ca84958936"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/bd5606e9da1a01a61c7d2f5df36243414a0142be"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0bde4f140e90f87ebd49cd9c884c4bb3f19fe931"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/eda08b6bd64f01ca9defbfcc9e0c3e30f46cfc02"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d3c1316d84e0a036890b00ae6e4c0b0b80f70c25"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/95342d26f9c6b68a46ab57fa48428a3c4a423dd7"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8648e29e5c01b6b677c704049189287e27255ccb"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f9324d670ae0b88cbfb0aa48fcaefa5baeb8da4c"}],"title":"regulator: as3722_get_regulator_dt_data: fix premature of_node_put leaving dangling of_node pointer","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
