CVE-2025-40037 (published 2025-10-28)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

fbdev: simplefb: Fix use after free in simplefb_detach_genpds()

The pm_domain cleanup can not be devres managed as it uses struct
simplefb_par which is allocated within struct fb_info by
framebuffer_alloc(). This allocation is explicitly freed by
unregister_framebuffer() in simplefb_remove().
Devres managed cleanup runs after the device remove call and thus can no
longer access struct simplefb_par.
Call simplefb_detach_genpds() explicitly from simplefb_destroy() like
the cleanup functions for clocks and regulators.

Fixes an use after free on M2 Mac mini during
aperture_remove_conflicting_devices() using the downstream asahi kernel
with Debian's kernel config. For unknown reasons this started to
consistently dereference an invalid pointer in v6.16.3 based kernels.
