    CVE-2025-37781 – HP Linux Kernel i2c cros-ec-tunnel NULL Pointer Dereference

    May 1, 2025

    CVE ID : CVE-2025-37781

    Published : May 1, 2025, 2:15 p.m. | 1 hour, 10 minutes ago

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

    i2c: cros-ec-tunnel: defer probe if parent EC is not present

    When i2c-cros-ec-tunnel and the EC driver are built-in, the EC parent
    device will not be found, leading to NULL pointer dereference.

    That can also be reproduced by unbinding the controller driver and then
    loading i2c-cros-ec-tunnel module (or binding the device).
