In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: Fix memory leak in hpd_rx_irq_create_workqueue()
If construction of the array of work queues to handle hpd_rx_irq offload
work fails, we need to unwind. Destroy all the created workqueues and
the allocated memory for the hpd_rx_irq_offload_work_queue struct array.
