error first, unlike the\n\"rtc\" clock a few lines above which is correctly checked with\nIS_ERR(). clk_get_rate() only guards against a NULL clk, not an error\npointer:\n\n\tif (!clk)\n\t\treturn 0;\n\t...\n\trate = clk_core_get_rate_recalc(clk->core);\n\nso if devm_clk_get() ever returns an error pointer here (for example\nERR_PTR(-EPROBE_DEFER), which is the normal, expected outcome if the\nclkcfg clock-provider this RTC depends on has not registered its\nclocks yet by the time this driver probes), clk_get_rate() dereferences\nthat error pointer instead of returning 0, crashing instead of letting\nprobe defer.\n\nCapture the clock in the existing 'clk' local and check it with\nIS_ERR() before calling clk_get_rate(), matching the handling already\nused for the \"rtc\" clock in this same function.","score":null,"severity":"unknown","published":"2026-10-18T15:49:17.605Z","modified":"2026-10-30T12:40:01.280Z","withdrawn":false,"knownExploited":false,"affected":[],"products":[{"vendor":"Linux","name":"Linux","platforms":[],"versions":[{"version":"0b31d703598dc1993867597bbd45e87d824fc427","status":"affected","lessThan":"7f59e824a4403e156cf930fe556b75139452099e","versionType":"git"},{"version":"0b31d703598dc1993867597bbd45e87d824fc427","status":"affected","lessThan":"ab741d1b714b4acc605f3d14cdc4120f87341ed1","versionType":"git"},{"version":"0b31d703598dc1993867597bbd45e87d824fc427","status":"affected","lessThan":"74dc7c52946e3d47c40edd0875adb7cc15937066","versionType":"git"},{"version":"0b31d703598dc1993867597bbd45e87d824fc427","status":"affected","lessThan":"cfd70c9b19846c524f2b6195a7484bdf22071ccf","versionType":"git"},{"version":"0b31d703598dc1993867597bbd45e87d824fc427","status":"affected","lessThan":"8a03f8422fa08eed335c51bccb612a3d81739ff2","versionType":"git"},{"version":"0b31d703598dc1993867597bbd45e87d824fc427","status":"affected","lessThan":"ac41b05d15db3134e839148290d67415ee0bdb58","versionType":"git"}],"defaultStatus":"unaffected","cpes":[],"source":"Linux","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-98825"},{"vendor":"Linux","name":"Linux","platforms":[],"versions":[{"version":"6.0","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","status":"unaffected","lessThan":"6.0","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.191","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.160","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.113","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.56","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2.10","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"7.2.*","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.3","status":"unaffected","lessThanOrEqual":"*","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}],"defaultStatus":"affected","cpes":[],"source":"Linux","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-98825"}],"remediation":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7f59e824a4403e156cf930fe556b75139452099e","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ab741d1b714b4acc605f3d14cdc4120f87341ed1","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/74dc7c52946e3d47c40edd0875adb7cc15937066","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/cfd70c9b19846c524f2b6195a7484bdf22071ccf","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8a03f8422fa08eed335c51bccb612a3d81739ff2","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ac41b05d15db3134e839148290d67415ee0bdb58"],"sources":[{"name":"CVE","id":"CVE-2026-98825","modified":"2026-10-30T12:40:01.280Z","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-98825"}],"assessments":[],"sourceAffected":[],"observedAt":"2026-10-30T13:09:30.851Z","kev":{"status":"not-listed","checkedAt":"2026-11-15T03:00:33.317Z"},"coverage":[{"source":"NVD","status":"not-checked"},{"source":"GHSA","status":"not-checked"},{"source":"EUVD","status":"not-checked"},{"source":"EPSS","status":"not-checked"}],"evidence":[],"aiSummary":null}
