CWE ID 476

Summary

CVE-2024-56682 is a vulnerability affecting the Linux kernel. Specifically, it pertains to the APLIC driver in the irqchip/riscv-aplic subsystem. If the APLIC driver is probed before the IMSIC driver, the parent MSI domain will be missing, leading to a NULL pointer dereference in msi_create_device_irq_domain(). To mitigate this issue, it is recommended to defer probe until the parent MSI domain is available and use dev_err_probe() to suppress error messages when returning -EPROBE_DEFER.
