CVE-2026-23129

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:dpll: Prevent duplicate registrationsModify the internal registration helpers dpll_xa_ref_{dpll,pin}_add()to reject duplicate registration attempts.Previously, if a caller attempted to register the same pin multipletimes (with the same ops, priv, and cookie) on the same device, the coresilently increments the reference count and return success. This behavioris incorrect because if the caller makes these duplicate registrationsthen for the first one dpll_pin_registration is allocated and for othersthe associated dpll_pin_ref.refcount is incremented. During the firstunregistration the associated dpll_pin_registration is freed and forothers WARN is fired.Fix this by updating the logic to return -EEXIST if a matchingregistration is found to enforce a strict register once policy.
