Kernel warning via invalid PNP unregistration
Published Dec 22, 2025 · Updated Dec 22, 2025
A driver lifecycle flaw in the Linux c6xdigio driver allows local users to trigger a kernel warning through a Comedi ioctl. c6xdigio_attach() can fail before PNP registration or ignore a registration failure, while c6xdigio_detach() still passes the unregistered driver to pnp_unregister_driver(). Reachability requires the c6xdigio low-level driver and a Comedi attach or detach path; the published trace establishes a warning, not data access or code execution.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
