Official Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

spi: meson-spicc: Fix double-put in remove path

meson_spicc_probe() registers the controller with

devm_spi_register_controller(), so teardown already drops the

controller reference via devm cleanup.

Calling spi_controller_put() again in meson_spicc_remove()

causes a double-put.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-31489 requires local access, meaning attackers must already have a foothold on the target system.

Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.

A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 7.8.
