    CVE-2026-31487: SPI driver_override use-after-free and the safe generic fix

    CVE-2026-31487 is a reminder that some of the most consequential Linux kernel bugs are not loud crashes or dramatic memory-corruption chains, but quiet lifetime mistakes hidden inside core infrastructure. In this case, the issue sits in the SPI subsystem’s interaction with the kernel’s...
