Description
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's spi: oc-tiny driver. This vulnerability arises from a timing issue where the system attempts to free memory associated with a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) controller before ensuring that all related interrupt handling has ceased. This can lead to a use-after-free condition, allowing a late or latched interrupt to access memory that has already been released. Such an event can result in memory corruption and potentially cause a denial of service.
