In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: aacraid: Fix double-free on probe failure
aac_probe_one() calls hardware-specific init functions through the
aac_driver_ident::init pointer, all of which eventually call down to
aac_init_adapter().

it frees the memory but does not clear that member.

aac_probe_one() goes down an error path…
