Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
drm/mediatek: Fix device use-after-free on unbind<br />
<br />
A recent change fixed device reference leaks when looking up drm<br />
platform device driver data during bind() but failed to remove a partial<br />
fix which had been added by commit 80805b62ea5b ("drm/mediatek: Fix<br />
kobject put for component sub-drivers").<br />
<br />
This results in a reference imbalance on component bind() failures and<br />
on unbind() which could lead to a user-after-free.<br />
<br />
Make sure to only drop the references after retrieving the driver data<br />
by effectively reverting the previous partial fix.<br />
<br />
Note that holding a reference to a device does not prevent its driver<br />
data from going away so there is no point in keeping the reference.
