Set fwnode->secondary to NULL on\ninitialization. While at it: initialize the remaining fields of struct\nfwnode_handle too just to be sure.\n\n[ Fix typo in commit message. - Danilo ]"

"value": "AV:L - The flaw is in fwnode_init() in the driver-core firmware-node layer; uninitialized fwnode->secondary is consumed in dev_to_swnode() and fwnode_property_*() during local device probe, property lookups, and configfs-driven gpio-sim/gpio-virtuser software-node creation—never from a network packet or remote protocol handler.\nAC:L - Once a fwnode_handle is placed in non-zeroed stack or kmalloc storage and passed through fwnode_init(), the uninitialized secondary pointer is deterministically non-NULL and non-IS_ERR(), and property helpers immediately pass it to fwnode_call_*_op() without further validation—no race, heap grooming, or victim timing is required.\nPR:L - No init-namespace root is required to reach the dereference paths: fwnode_property_present() and dev_to_swnode() run during automatic driver probe/bind and consumer property resolution (GPIO/IIO/reset/v4l2-fwnode) that a local unprivileged user can trigger by opening device nodes or causing driver binding on embedded/Android systems using software nodes.\nUI:N - The garbage secondary pointer is dereferenced automatically inside kernel property lookups and dev_to_swnode() during probe or device registration; no separate victim action such as mounting media, clicking a prompt, or opening a malicious file is needed beyond the affected driver path executing.\nS:U - Impact is confined to kernel memory corruption and crashes within the host kernel's own security authority during firmware-node property handling; it does not cross VM, IOMMU, container, or sandbox boundaries.\nC:H - An uninitialized secondary is treated as a live fwnode_handle pointer; fwnode_call_bool_op()/fwnode_call_int_op() evaluate fwnode->ops on attacker-influenced stack or slab residue, reading kernel memory through misinterpreted ops tables rather than a bounded disclosure.\nI:H - The same garbage secondary is passed into fwnode_call_*_op() and set_secondary_fwnode()/fwnode_is_primary() logic; a non-NULL, non-ERR value with plausible ops and list-head residue enables indirect calls and list manipulation—control-flow-relevant memory corruption per CNA guidance for uninitialized pointer use in fwnode plumbing.\nA:H - Dereferencing an uninitialized secondary in dev_to_swnode() or fwnode_property_*() causes an immediate kernel oops/panic from a bad pointer or invalid ops dispatch; the fault is repeatable whenever the affected fwnode initialization path is exercised."
