CVE-2026-97967

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

hwmon: (corsair-cpro) Remove debugfs entries when probe fails

ccp debugfs init() registers debugfs files whose private data is the devm allocated ccp. If hwmon device register with info() fails right after it, ccp probe() returns without removing them: the HID core then frees ccp, and ccp remove() is not called for a failed probe, so the files stay behind. Reading one of them dereferences the freed pointer.

Remove the debugfs entries on that error path. debugfs remove recursive() waits for readers already inside the show callbacks, so ccp is no longer reachable through debugfs by the time probe returns.
