  - power: supply: act8945a: Fix use-after-free in power_supply_changed() Using the `devm_` variant for
    requesting IRQ _before_ the `devm_` variant for allocating/registering the `power_supply` handle, means
    that the `power_supply` handle will be deallocated/unregistered _before_ the interrupt handler (since
    `devm_` naturally deallocates in reverse allocation order). This means that during removal, there is a
    race condition where an interrupt can fire just _after_ the `power_supply` handle has been freed, *but*
    just _before_ the corresponding unregistration of the IRQ handler has run. This will lead to the IRQ
    handler calling `power_supply_changed()` with a freed `power_supply` handle. Which usually crashes the
    system or otherwise silently corrupts the memory... Note that there is a similar situation which can also
    happen during `probe()`; the possibility of an interrupt firing _before_ registering the `power_supply`
    handle. This would then lead to the nasty situation of using the `power_supply` handle *uninitialized* in
    `power_supply_changed()`. Fix this racy use-after-free by making sure the IRQ is requested _after_ the
    registration of the `power_supply` handle. (CVE-2026-45867)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
