Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> platform/x86: x86-android-tablets: Fix use after free on platform_device_register() errors<br /> <br /> x86_android_tablet_remove() frees the pdevs[] array, so it should not<br /> be used after calling x86_android_tablet_remove().<br /> <br /> When platform_device_register() fails, store the pdevs[x] PTR_ERR() value<br /> into the local ret variable before calling x86_android_tablet_remove()<br /> to avoid using pdevs[] after it has been freed.
