      <title>CVE-2026-31582 — hwmon: (powerz) Fix use-after-free on USB disconnect</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-31582</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;hwmon: (powerz) Fix use-after-free on USB disconnect&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After powerz_disconnect() frees the URB and releases the mutex, a
subsequent powerz_read() call can acquire the mutex and call
powerz_read_data(), which dereferences the freed URB pointer.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fix by:
 - Setting priv-&amp;gt;urb to NULL in powerz_disconnect() so that
   powerz_read_data() can detect the disconnected state.
 - Adding a !priv-&amp;gt;urb check at the start of powerz_read_data()
   to return -ENODEV on a disconnected device.
 - Moving usb_set_intfdata() before hwmon registration so the
   disconnect handler can always find the priv pointer.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
