      <title>CVE-2026-53278 — arm_mpam: Check whether the config array is allocated before destroying it</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-53278</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;arm_mpam: Check whether the config array is allocated before destroying it&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;__destroy_component_cfg() is called to free the configuration array.
It uses the embedded &amp;#39;garbage&amp;#39; structure, which means the array has
to be allocated.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If __destroy_component_cfg() is called from mpam_disable() before the
configuration was ever allocated, then a NULL pointer is dereferenced.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Check for this case and return early if the configuration is not
allocated.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;__destroy_component_cfg() also frees the mbwu_state as this is allocated
by __allocate_component_cfg(). As the mbwu_state is allocated after
comp-&amp;gt;cfg is set, and is also under mpam_list_lock, only the first
pointer needs checking.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
