Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-07-19 17:05:06 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

firmware: arm_ffa: Snapshot notifier callbacks under lock

Both notification handlers currently look up a notifier callback under
notify_lock, drop the lock, and then dereference the returned
notifier entry. A concurrent unregister can delete and free that
entry in the gap, leaving the handler to dereference stale memory.

Copy the callback pointer and callback data while notify_lock is
still held and invoke the callback only after the lock is dropped.
This keeps the existing callback execution model while removing the
use-after-free window in both the framework and non-framework
notification paths.
