In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
PM: EM: fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup()<br />
<br />
When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it,<br />
otherwise the memory will leak over time. To make things simpler, just<br />
call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic<br />
at once.
