Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-10-04 18:31 – Updated: 2026-02-10 00:30

Details

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

gpio: sifive: Fix refcount leak in sifive_gpio_probe

of_irq_find_parent() returns a node pointer with refcount incremented, We should use of_node_put() on it when not needed anymore. Add missing of_node_put() to avoid refcount leak.

Severity

5.5 (Medium)
