{"id":"CVE-2024-56787","summary":"soc: imx8m: Probe the SoC driver as platform driver","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nsoc: imx8m: Probe the SoC driver as platform driver\n\nWith driver_async_probe=* on kernel command line, the following trace is\nproduced because on i.MX8M Plus hardware because the soc-imx8m.c driver\ncalls of_clk_get_by_name() which returns -EPROBE_DEFER because the clock\ndriver is not yet probed. This was not detected during regular testing\nwithout driver_async_probe.\n\nConvert the SoC code to platform driver and instantiate a platform device\nin its current device_initcall() to probe the platform driver. Rework\n.soc_revision callback to always return valid error code and return SoC\nrevision via parameter. This way, if anything in the .soc_revision callback\nreturn -EPROBE_DEFER, it gets propagated to .probe and the .probe will get\nretried later.\n\n\"\n------------[ cut here ]------------\nWARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 1 at drivers/soc/imx/soc-imx8m.c:115 imx8mm_soc_revision+0xdc/0x180\nCPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.11.0-next-20240924-00002-g2062bb554dea #603\nHardware name: DH electronics i.MX8M Plus DHCOM Premium Developer Kit (3) (DT)\npstate: 20000005 (nzCv daif -PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--)\npc : imx8mm_soc_revision+0xdc/0x180\nlr : imx8mm_soc_revision+0xd0/0x180\nsp : ffff8000821fbcc0\nx29: ffff8000821fbce0 x28: 0000000000000000 x27: ffff800081810120\nx26: ffff8000818a9970 x25: 0000000000000006 x24: 0000000000824311\nx23: ffff8000817f42c8 x22: ffff0000df8be210 x21: fffffffffffffdfb\nx20: ffff800082780000 x19: 0000000000000001 x18: ffffffffffffffff\nx17: ffff800081fff418 x16: ffff8000823e1000 x15: ffff0000c03b65e8\nx14: ffff0000c00051b0 x13: ffff800082790000 x12: 0000000000000801\nx11: ffff80008278ffff x10: ffff80008209d3a6 x9 : ffff80008062e95c\nx8 : ffff8000821fb9a0 x7 : 0000000000000000 x6 : 00000000000080e3\nx5 : ffff0000df8c03d8 x4 : 0000000000000000 x3 : 0000000000000000\nx2 : 0000000000000000 x1 : fffffffffffffdfb x0 : fffffffffffffdfb\nCall trace:\n imx8mm_soc_revision+0xdc/0x180\n imx8_soc_init+0xb0/0x1e0\n do_one_initcall+0x94/0x1a8\n kernel_init_freeable+0x240/0x2a8\n kernel_init+0x28/0x140\n ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20\n---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---\nSoC: i.MX8MP revision 1.1\n\"","modified":"2026-04-02T12:25:15.695468Z","published":"2025-01-08T17:52:03.420Z","related":["MGASA-2025-0030","MGASA-2025-0032","SUSE-SU-2025:0289-1","SUSE-SU-2025:0428-1","SUSE-SU-2025:0499-1","SUSE-SU-2025:0557-1","SUSE-SU-2025:20165-1","SUSE-SU-2025:20166-1","SUSE-SU-2025:20248-1","SUSE-SU-2025:20249-1","USN-7379-2","USN-7380-1"],"database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"Linux","osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2024/56xxx/CVE-2024-56787.json"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2129f6faa5dfe8c6b87aad11720bf75edd77d3e4"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/997a3c04d7fa3d1d385c14691350d096fada648c"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9cc832d37799dbea950c4c8a34721b02b8b5a8ff"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e497edb8f31ec2c2b6f4ce930e175aa2da8be334"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ea2ff66feb5f9b183f9e2f9d06c21340bd88de12"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2025/03/msg00001.html"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2024/56xxx/CVE-2024-56787.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-56787"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"a7e26f356ca12906a164d83c9e9f8527ee7da022"},{"fixed":"e497edb8f31ec2c2b6f4ce930e175aa2da8be334"},{"fixed":"ea2ff66feb5f9b183f9e2f9d06c21340bd88de12"},{"fixed":"2129f6faa5dfe8c6b87aad11720bf75edd77d3e4"},{"fixed":"997a3c04d7fa3d1d385c14691350d096fada648c"},{"fixed":"9cc832d37799dbea950c4c8a34721b02b8b5a8ff"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2024-56787.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"}]}
