CVE-2025-39772

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description: A flaw exists in the Linux kernel’s drm/hisilicon/hibmc driver related to handling hibmc loading failures. When hibmc loading fails, the driver attempts to free resources using hibmc unload before mutexes within mode.config have been initialized, leading to a potential NULL pointer access. The issue is addressed by modifying a goto statement to a return statement, as hibnc hw init() does not require resource freeing in this scenario.

Recommendations: At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
