CVE-2026-72346
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
platform/x86: bitland-mifs-wmi: Fix NULL pointer dereference during suspend/resume
The driver registers two distinct WMI devices: a control device (BITLAND_WMI_CONTROL) and an event device (BITLAND_WMI_EVENT). During the probe phase, the event device handling path returns early before initializing the platform profile device (data->pp_dev), leaving it NULL.
However, the PM sleep operations are registered globally for the WMI driver and are triggered for both devices.
Leer descripción completaMostrar menos
When entering suspend, the event device invokes bitland_mifs_wmi_suspend(), which passes the uninitialized data->pp_dev (NULL) into laptop_profile_get(). This leads to a NULL pointer dereference inside dev_get_drvdata(), causing a kernel Oops and halting the suspend sequence.
Fix this by adding a validity check for data->pp_dev in both the suspend and resume callbacks, safely skipping profile operations for the event device.
