Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
thermal: core: Reference count the zone in thermal_zone_get_by_id()<br />
<br />
There are places in the thermal netlink code where nothing prevents<br />
the thermal zone object from going away while being accessed after it<br />
has been returned by thermal_zone_get_by_id().<br />
<br />
To address this, make thermal_zone_get_by_id() get a reference on the<br />
thermal zone device object to be returned with the help of get_device(),<br />
under thermal_list_lock, and adjust all of its callers to this change<br />
with the help of the cleanup.h infrastructure.
