3.3 LOW — CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mcb: mcb-parse: fix error handing in chameleon_parse_gdd() If mcb_device_register() returns error in chameleon_parse_gdd(), the refcount of bus and device name are leaked. Fix this by calling put_device() to give up the reference, so they can be released in mcb_release_dev() and kobject_cleanup().

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 3.15 < 4.9.337) • linux linux kernel (>= 4.10 < 4.14.303) • linux linux kernel (>= 4.15 < 4.19.270) • linux linux kernel (>= 4.20 < 5.4.229) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.5 < 5.10.163) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.11 < 5.15.86) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.16 < 6.0.16) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.1 < 6.1.2)
