In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mmc: via-sdmmc: stop card-detect handling on probe failure request_irq() registers the SD card-detect interrupt and the probe enables it before mmc_add_host() runs. If mmc_add_host() fails, the error path only unmaps the registers and returns: the interrupt stays registered, so the handler keeps running against the host once it is freed. via_sdc_isr() dereferences sdhost and its MMIO base and schedules carddet_work, which via_
