Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
drm/amdgpu: Release VFCT ACPI table reference<br />
<br />
amdgpu_acpi_vfct_bios() fetches the VFCT table with acpi_get_table()<br />
but never releases it. acpi_get_table() takes a reference on the<br />
table (incrementing its validation_count and mapping it on the 0->1<br />
transition); without a paired acpi_put_table() the mapping is leaked<br />
on every call, whether or not a matching VBIOS image is found.<br />
<br />
Route all exit paths after the table is acquired through a common<br />
acpi_put_table(). The VBIOS image is copied out with kmemdup() before<br />
the table is released, so it remains valid for the caller.<br />
<br />
(cherry picked from commit ca5988682b4cba4cd125a0fa99b2de1239164ae4)
