CVE-2024-50176

remoteproc: k3-r5: Fix error handling when power-up failed

Published Nov 8, 2024 CVSS 3.1 · 5.5 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

remoteproc: k3-r5: Fix error handling when power-up failed

By simply bailing out, the driver was violating its rule and internal
assumptions that either both or no rproc should be initialized. E.g.,
this could cause the first core to be available but not the second one,
leading to crashes on its shutdown later on while trying to dereference
that second instance.
