In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: uio: Fix stale info pointer in failed registration path After device_add(), the UIO device is visible to userspace and /dev/uioX can be opened. If a later setup step fails, __uio_register_device() unwinds the device but leaves idev->info pointing at the caller-owned struct uio_info. That is unsafe when an opener races with the failed registration path. The open file keeps a reference to the uio_device, while the caller sees r
