In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
phy: mdio: fix memory leak
Syzbot reported memory leak in MDIO bus interface, the problem was in wrong state logic.
MDIOBUS_ALLOCATED indicates 2 states: 1. Bus is only allocated 2. Bus allocated and __mdiobus_register() fails, but device_register() was called
In case of device_register() has been called we should call put_device() to correctly free the memory allocated for this device, but mdiobus_free() calls just kfree(dev) in case of MDIOBUS_ALLOCATED state
To avoid this behaviour we need to set bus->state to MDIOBUS_UNREGISTERED before calling device_register(), because put_device() should be called even in case of device_register() failure.
