CVE-2026-46282

iio: frequency: admv1013: fix NULL pointer dereference on str

Published Jun 8, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 5.5 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

iio: frequency: admv1013: fix NULL pointer dereference on str

When device_property_read_string() fails, str is left uninitialized
but the code falls through to strcmp(str, ...), dereferencing a garbage
pointer. Replace manual read/strcmp with
device_property_match_property_string() and consolidate the SE mode
enums into a single sequential enum, mapping to hardware register
values via a switch consistent with other bitfields in the driver.

Several cleanup patches have been applied to this driver recently so
this will need a manual backport.
