Summary
CVE-2025-38531 affecting package kernel 5.15.200.1-1
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

iio: common: st_sensors: Fix use of uninitialize device structs

Throughout the various probe functions &indiodev->dev is used before it is initialized. This caused a kernel panic in stsensorspowerenable() when the call to devmregulatorbulkgetenable() fails and then calls deverrprobe() with the uninitialized device.

This seems to only cause a panic with deverrprobe(), deverr(), devwarn() and dev_info() don't seem to cause a panic, but are fixed as well.

The issue is reported and traced here: [1]
