Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
A race condition exists during the deregistration of i2c adapters. The
i2c get adapter() function allows adapters to be looked up by their ID, which takes a reference to the embedded struct device. If the adapter is not removed from the IDR (Integer ID Management) before it is torn down during deregistration or registration failure, resources such as the device name may be accessed after they have been freed.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
