      <title>CVE-2026-53308 — power: supply: max77705: Free allocated workqueue and fix removal order</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-53308</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;power: supply: max77705: Free allocated workqueue and fix removal order&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Use devm interface for allocating workqueue to fix two bugs at the same
time:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1. Driver leaks the memory on remove(), because the workqueue is not
   destroyed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2. Driver allocates workqueue and then registers interrupt handlers
   with devm interface.  This means that probe error paths will not use a
   reversed order, but first destroy the workqueue and then, via devm
   release handlers, free the interrupt.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The interrupt handler schedules work on this exact workqueue, thus if
   interrupt is hit in this short time window - after destroying
   workqueue, but before devm() frees the interrupt - the schedulled
   work will lead to use of freed memory.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Change is not equivalent in the workqueue itself: use non-legacy API
which does not set (__WQ_LEGACY | WQ_MEM_RECLAIM).  The workqueue is
used to update power supply (power_supply_changed()) status, thus there
is no point to run it for memory reclaim.  Note that dev_name() is not
directly used in second argument to prevent possible unlikely parsing
any &amp;#34;%&amp;#34; character in device name as format.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
