If hwmon_device_register_with_info() fails right after it,\nccp_probe() returns without removing them: the HID core then frees ccp,\nand ccp_remove() is not called for a failed probe, so the files stay\nbehind.  Reading one of them dereferences the freed pointer.\n\nRemove the debugfs entries on that error path.  debugfs_remove_recursive()\nwaits for readers already inside the show callbacks, so ccp is no longer\nreachable through debugfs by the time probe returns.\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.","depth":"sunlit","depthScore":3,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":2.8,"likelihood":0,"exploitation":0,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
