That matches other USB gadget/UDC and onboard Type-C teardown UAFs scored Local and is higher severity than Physical.\nAC:L - An attacker who initiates remove controls both sides: TCPM set_cc/start_toggling queue the 2ms cc_debounce_dwork, and kthread_destroy_worker() in tcpm_unregister_port() can run those callbacks after port_stop() returns, re-queueing work that then runs after devres frees pmic_typec_port. Use-after-free bugs are AC:L unless the attacker cannot influence the race.\nPR:L - Highest reasonable exposure is a local account on Qualcomm phones, automotive, and embedded boards that manage the Type-C/USB stack, where platform unbind or USB HAL access is often delegated beyond init-namespace root. Uncertain Low versus High, so Low per the overestimate rule.\nUI:N - The attacker initiates driver unbind, module unload, or a failing re-probe themselves; no separate victim action such as plugging a USB-C cable, mounting a filesystem, or opening a device node is required.\nS:U - The use-after-free corrupts the host kernel pmic_typec_port heap object within the same OS security authority and does not cross a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary.\nC:H - qcom_pmic_typec_port_cc_debounce() recovers the freed pmic_typec_port via container_of and reads its spinlock and device pointer; per CNA guidance a use-after-free enables arbitrary kernel memory disclosure.\nI:H - The same delayed work writes debouncing_cc and performs spin_lock/unlock on the freed object, and the pending delayed_work lives inside pmic_typec_port, so heap spray yields an arbitrary write or workqueue function-pointer hijack.\nA:H - Use-after-free of pmic_typec_port from system-wq delayed work after remove causes a kernel oops or panic even without a full exploit, so availability impact is High." } ] } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/usb/typec/tcpm/qcom/qcom_pmic_typec_port.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "a4422ff221429c600c3dc5d0394fb3738b89d040", "lessThan": "4359b5f95c93a4658e08368fa6fab9d89eb98447", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "a4422ff221429c600c3dc5d0394fb3738b89d040", "lessThan": "c614d7c44ca7fb78867ba46b233acdb59287e8c8", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "a4422ff221429c600c3dc5d0394fb3738b89d040", "lessThan": "1ab669c2b44e1040ddfab7cd7f717aad580d17aa", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "a4422ff221429c600c3dc5d0394fb3738b89d040", "lessThan": "263f7d61a4201cde16849b2d016251806e7418be", "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/usb/typec/tcpm/qcom/qcom_pmic_typec_port.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "6.5", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "6.5", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.12.110", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.18.51", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.2.5", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.2.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.3", "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": "6.5", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.110" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.5", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.51" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.5", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2.5" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.5", "versionEndExcluding": "7.3" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4359b5f95c93a4658e08368fa6fab9d89eb98447" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c614d7c44ca7fb78867ba46b233acdb59287e8c8" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1ab669c2b44e1040ddfab7cd7f717aad580d17aa" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/263f7d61a4201cde16849b2d016251806e7418be" } ], "title": "usb: typec: qcom-pmic-typec: disable cc_debounce_dwork on stop", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } } } }
