Technical description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ASoC: Intel: sof_sdw: handle errors on card registration

If the card registration fails, typically because of deferred probes,

the device properties added for headset codecs are not removed, which

leads to kernel oopses in driver bind/unbind tests.

We already clean-up the device properties when the card is removed,

this code can be moved as a helper and called upon card registration

errors.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
