Description

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's `cros_ec_typec` component. This vulnerability occurs because a mutex, a mechanism used to prevent simultaneous access to shared resources, was not properly initialized during Thunderbolt registration. This oversight can lead to a NULL dereference, potentially causing system instability or a denial of service (DoS) for affected systems.
