      "title": "power: supply: charger-manager: register regulators before exposing sysfs",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\npower: supply: charger-manager: register regulators before exposing sysfs\n\ncharger_manager_remove() and the err_reg_extcon probe error path free each\ncharger regulator with regulator_put() before tearing down the power_supply\nsysfs entries (power_supply_unregister()). charger_manager_remove() also\ncalls try_charger_enable(cm, false) after the regulator_put() loop. A\nconcurrent write to a charger's externally_control sysfs attribute that\nlands between regulator_put() and power_supply_unregister() can run\ncharger_externally_control_store() and call try_charger_enable(), which,\nwhen charging is enabled, dereferences the already-freed consumer handle.\nWhen charging is enabled, try_charger_enable(cm, false) in .remove() also\ndereferences the freed handles directly. Both leave use-after-free windows.\nSymmetrically, probe registers the sysfs entries (power_supply_register)\nbefore acquiring the regulators (regulator_get, inside\ncharger_manager_register_extcon), so userspace can reach externally_control\nbefore the regulators are available.\n\nSplit charger_manager_register_extcon() on the sync/async boundary:\ncharger_manager_get_regulators() (regulator_get only, no async producer)\nnow runs before power_supply_register() so sysfs is not live before\nregulators are available, and charger_manager_register_extcon() keeps only\nthe extcon notifier/work setup, still after power_supply_register() so a\npower_supply_register() failure cannot reach extcon setup. This keeps the\nsysfs setup/teardown ordering symmetric without introducing an asynchronous\nproducer on the earlier probe-error path.\n\nMove power_supply_unregister() and try_charger_enable(cm, false) ahead of\nthe regulator_put() loop on both teardown paths, and adjust err_reg_extcon\n(power_supply_unregister() then fall through err_regulator for\nregulator_put(); get_regulators self-rolls back on its own failure).\n\nThis does not address the separate extcon-notifier-driven deref of the same\nhandles, which needs its own synchronization design.\n\nFound by an in-house static analysis tool.",
