Last modified
CVE-2022-49679 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.5/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ARM: Fix refcount leak in axxia_boot_secondary of_find_compatible_node() returns a node pointer with refcount incremented, we should use of_node_put() on it when done. Add missing of_node_put() to avoid refcount leak.. EPSS estimates a 0.24% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
