CVE-2022-50244

CVE-2022-50244 affects the Linux kernel code path in cxl_pci_init_afu|adapter() where a failed device_register() leaves a not-added device and leads to a potential null pointer dereference if device_unregister() is called in the error path. The fix splits unregister logic into device_del() and pu...

CVE-2022-50119

The CVE-2022-50119 issue concerns the Linux kernel and a refcount leak in rpmsg_register_device_override. The root cause is that put_device was not invoked to free the vchan on a driver_set_override error path, risking a leak. The fix adds a put_device() in the error path to ensure proper resourc...
