CVE-2026-90147: clk: devres: fix cleanup in devm_clk_get_optional_enabled_with_rate()

Published Sep 17, 2026

Updated

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

clk: devres: fix cleanup in devmclkgetoptionalenabledwithrate()

devmclkgetoptionalenabledwithrate() registers its cleanup action before setting the clock rate. If setting the rate fails, it attempts to disable and unprepare a clock that was never enabled. This issue was spotted while reviewing "rust: clk: add devres-managed clks" [1].

Register the cleanup action only after successfully preparing and enabling the clock.
