Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/mediatek: fix potential OF node use-after-free
The for_each_child_of_node() helper drops the reference it takes to each
node as it iterates over children and an explicit of_node_put() is only
needed when exiting the loop early.
Drop the recently introduced bogus additional reference count decrement
at each iteration that could potentially lead to a use-after-free.
Affected configurations
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.6.105 < 6.6.107)
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.12.45 < 6.12.48)
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.16.5 < 6.16.8)
• linux linux kernel 6.17
