CVE-2026-43415

/* * PoC Concept for CVE-2026-43415 * This code demonstrates the logic flaw in the UFS suspend path. * Actual exploitation requires triggering system suspend on vulnerable hardware. */ #include <linux/module.h> #include <linux/workqueue.h> // Simulating the vulnerable race condition logic void vulnerable_suspend_logic(struct device *dev) { // Vulnerability: Cancel work is called AFTER suspend ops // 1. Execute suspend operations (clock gating) // ufshcd_vops_suspend(hba, pm_op, POST_CHANGE); printk(KERN_INFO "Suspending device and gating clocks...\n"); // 2. Race window exists here where rtc_work might fire // 3. Cancel work (Too late!) // cancel_delayed_work_sync(&hba->rtc_work); printk(KERN_INFO "Cancelling delayed work...\n"); } void fixed_suspend_logic(struct device *dev) { // Fix: Cancel work BEFORE suspend ops // 1. Cancel work first // cancel_delayed_work_sync(&hba->rtc_work); printk(KERN_INFO "Cancelling delayed work...\n"); // 2.

This creates a race condition where ufshcd_rtc_work() can\nstill be running while ufshcd_vops_suspend() is executing. When\nUFSHCD_CAP_CLK_GATING is not supported, the condition\n!hba->clk_gating.active_reqs is always true, causing ufshcd_update_rtc()\nto be executed. Since ufshcd_vops_suspend() typically performs clock\ngating operations, executing ufshcd_update_rtc() at that moment triggers\nan SError.
