CVE-2026-46269

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

Description A NULL pointer dereference occurs in the k230 pinctrl driver during the probing process when parsing the devicetree. The issue arises within the k230 pinctrl parse functions() function, which attempts to retrieve a device pointer via info->pctl dev->dev before info->pctl dev has been initialized. This sequence leads to an invalid memory access because info->pctl dev remains NULL until k230 pinctrl parse dt() completes.

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