Technical description

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

gpio: aggregator: fix a potential use-after-free

On error we free aggr->lookups->dev_id before removing the entry from

the lookup table. If a concurrent thread calls gpiod_find() before we

remove the entry, it could iterate over the list and call

gpiod_match_lookup_table() which unconditionally dereferences dev_id

when calling strcmp(). Reverse the order of cleanup.

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.
