CVE-2026-43200

Description

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

PCI: endpoint: Fix swapped parameters in pci_{primary/secondary}_epc_epf_unlink() functions

struct configfs_item_operations callbacks are defined like the following:

int (*allow_link)(struct config_item *src, struct config_item *target); void (*drop_link)(struct config_item *src, struct config_item *target);

While pci_primary_epc_epf_link() and pci_secondary_epc_epf_link() specify the parameters in the correct order, pci_primary_epc_epf_unlink() and pci_secondary_epc_epf_unlink() specify the parameters in the wrong order, leading to the below kernel crash when using the unlink command in configfs:
