UBUNTU-CVE-2026-80743: Medium severity ubuntu/linux-hwe-edge vulnerability
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: xilinx: formatterpcm: pass auddrvdata to irq handlers The irq handlers take a struct device pointer and call devgetdrvdata() to obtain the driver data. However, the driver data is only set at the end of probe, after devmrequestirq(), so an interrupt taken in between causes the handlers to pass a NULL pointer to readl() and crash. Pass the private data directly as the devmrequestirq() argument instead of the device pointer, matching what the handlers expect.

Event History
Frequently Asked Questions
Which Ubuntu kernel package variants are listed as affected?
The affected software list includes ubuntu/linux, ubuntu/linux-azure, ubuntu/linux-gcp, ubuntu/linux-aws-fips, ubuntu/linux-azure-fips, ubuntu/linux-fips, ubuntu/linux-gcp-fips, and ubuntu/linux-realtime.
Under what condition can the failure occur?
The failure requires an interrupt to occur after devm_request_irq() has registered the handler but before the driver stores its private data with dev_set_drvdata() at the end of probe.
What is the expected impact if the condition is triggered?
The IRQ handler obtains NULL driver data and passes it to readl(), which can crash the kernel.
