Technical description

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

usb: typec: qcom-pmic: cancel reset_work on stop

pdphy_stop() disables IRQs but leaves reset_work pending. If the IRQ

handler schedules it just before disable_irq(), the work runs after

remove() frees the struct via devm.

Call cancel_work_sync() after disabling IRQs to close the window.

This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.

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.
