If an IRQ already is pending during adv7511_probe (before adv7511_cec_init) then cec_received_msg_ts could crash using uninitialized data: Unable to handle kernel read from unreadable memory at virtual address 00000000000003d5 Internal error: Oops: 96000004 [#1] PREEMPT_RT SMP Call trace: cec_received_msg_ts+0x48/0x990 [cec] adv7511_cec_irq_process+0x1cc/0x308 [adv7511] adv7511_irq_process+0xd8/0x120 [adv7511] adv7511_irq_handler+0x1c/0x30 [adv7511] irq_thread_fn+0x30/0xa0 irq_thread+0x14c/0x238 kthread+0x190/0x1a8
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.

Understanding the Weakness (CWE)
Integrity,Confidentiality,Availability
Technical Impact: Modify Application Data; Modify Memory; DoS: Crash, Exit, or Restart; Execute Unauthorized Code or Commands
It may be possible to cause data corruption and possibly execute arbitrary code by modifying global variables or data structures at unexpected times, violating the assumptions of code that uses this global data.
Access Control
Technical Impact: Gain Privileges or Assume Identity
If a signal handler interrupts code that is executing with privileges, it may be possible that the signal handler will also be executed with elevated privileges, possibly making subsequent exploits more severe.
