In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd: fix potential memory leak
This patch fix potential memory leak (clk_src) when function run
into last return NULL.
s/free/kfree/ - Alex
A memory leak was found in the Linux kernel's AMD display driver in the clock source initialization logic. When the initialization function encounters an error in its final return path, allocated memory for the clk_src structure is not freed before returning NULL. This results in leaked memory that accumulates with repeated initialization attempts, leading to resource exhaustion and denial of service.
Statement: The AMD display driver allocates memory for clock source structures during hardware initialization. In one particular error pa
