CVE-2025-38286
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pinctrl: at91: Fix possible out-of-boundary access at91_gpio_probe() doesn't check that given OF alias is not available or something went wrong when trying to get it.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.19%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pinctrl: at91: Fix possible out-of-boundary access at91_gpio_probe() doesn't check that given OF alias is not available or something went wrong when trying to get it. This might have consequences when accessing gpio_chips array with that value as an index. Note, that BUG() can be compiled out and hence won't actually perform the required checks.
