- rust: pwm: Fix potential memory leak on init error
- Details
-
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rust: pwm: Fix potential memory leak on init error
When initializing a PWM chip using pwmchip_alloc(), the allocated device owns an initial reference that must be released on all error paths.
If __pinned_init() were to fail, the allocated pwm_chip would currently leak because the error path returns without calling pwmchip_put().
