device property: set fwnode->secondary to NULL in fwnode_init()
Summary
| CVE | CVE-2026-64220 |
| State | PUBLISHED |
| Assigner | Linux |
| Source Priority | CVE Program / NVD first with legacy fallback |
| Published | 2026-07-24 16:16:49 UTC |

| Description | In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
device property: set fwnode->secondary to NULL in fwnode_init()
If a firmware node is allocated on the stack (for instance: temporary
software node whose life-time we control) or on the heap - but using a
non-zeroing allocation function - and initialized using fwnode_init(),
its secondary pointer will contain uninitalized memory which likely will
be neither NULL nor IS_ERR() and so may end up being dereferenced (for
example: in dev_to_swnode()). Set fwnode->secondary to NULL on
initialization. |
