In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

tpm: efi: Use local variable for calculating final log size

When tpm_read_log_efi is called multiple times, which happens when
one loads and unloads a TPM2 driver multiple times, then the global
variable efi_tpm_final_log_size will at some point become a negative
number due to the subtraction of final_events_preboot_size occurring
each time. Use a local variable to avoid this integer underflow.

The following issue is now resolved:
