In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: ulpi: fix double free in ulpi_register_interface() error path
When device_register() fails, ulpi_register() calls put_device() on
ulpi->dev.
The device release callback ulpi_dev_release() drops the OF node
reference and frees ulpi, but the current error path in
ulpi_register_interface() then calls kfree(ulpi) again, causing a
double free.
Let put_device() handle the cleanup through ulpi_dev_release() and
avoid freeing ulpi again in ulpi_register_interface().
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's USB ULPI (UTMI+ Low Pin Interface) driver. An error in the ulpi_register_interface() function's cleanup path can lead to a double free vulnerability. This occurs when device_register() fails, causing the ulpi structure to be freed twice. A local attacker could potentially exploit this to cause memory corruption or a denial of service, leading to system instability.
Отчет
ULPI interface registration error path could double-free; upstream fixes unwind ordering. Red Hat classifies this as USB ULPI core robustness; patching is the practical remediation.
