Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: mdiobus: Fix memory leak in __mdiobus_register

Once device_register() failed, we should call put_device() to decrement reference count for cleanup. Or it will cause memory leak.

Related by attack behaviour

Vulnerabilities whose description is nearest to this one in the vector space of the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-biencoder model. This is a similarity search over the bi-encoder space (plain cosine), not a classification, and it has no measured accuracy.
