CVE-2026-31485

EUVD-2026-24849
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

spi: spi-fsl-lpspi: fix teardown order issue (UAF)

There is a teardown order issue in the driver. The SPI controller is
registered using devm_spi_register_controller(), which delays
unregistration of the SPI controller until after the fsl_lpspi_remove()
function returns.

As the fsl_lpspi_remove() function synchronously tears down the DMA
channels, a running SPI transfer triggers the following NULL pointer
dereference due to use after free:

| fsl_lpspi 42550000.spi: I/O Error in DMA RX
| Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000000
[...]
| Call trace:
|  fsl_lpspi_dma_transfer+0x260/0x340 [spi_fsl_lpspi]
|  fsl_lpspi_transfer_one+0x198/0x448 [spi_fsl_lpspi]

[...]

Switch from devm_spi_register_controller() to spi_register_controller() in
fsl_lpspi_probe() and add the corresponding spi_unregister_controller() in
fsl_lpspi_remove().
