About this tag
The bmc150 tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about the BMC150 accelerometer driver in the Linux kernel, including a recently patched vulnerability (CVE-2025-68330) that caused NULL-pointer dereferences due to an IRQ assumption regression. The fix involved storing the IRQ number in device state and guarding interrupt setup. While primarily a Linux kernel topic, it may interest Windows users running Linux subsystems or dual-boot setups, as well as IT professionals managing mixed-OS environments. The tag also touches on hardware driver stability and kernel patching practices.
A recently recorded Linux kernel vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2025-68330, fixes a longstanding but newly manifesting defect in the BMC150 accelerometer driver (drivers/iio/accel/bmc150). The problem stems from an irq-assumption regression in bmc150-accel-core.c where the driver unconditionally...
