Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2024-07-12 13:15 - Updated: 2026-06-17 07:46
Severity
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: typec: tcpm: fix use-after-free case in tcpm_register_source_caps
There could be a potential use-after-free case in
tcpm_register_source_caps(). This could happen when:
* new (say invalid) source caps are advertised
* the existing source caps are unregistered
* tcpm_register_source_caps() returns with an error as
usb_power_delivery_register_capabilities() fails
This causes port->partner_source_caps to hold on to the now freed source
caps.
Reset port->partner_source_caps value to NULL after unregistering
existing source caps.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
