CVE-2023-54024
Last modified
CVE-2023-54024 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: Destroy target device if coalesced MMIO unregistration fails Destroy and free the target coalesced MMIO device if unregistering said device fails. As clearly noted in the code, kvm_io_bus_unregister_dev() does not destroy the target device.
