| Subject: CVE-2020-36781: i2c: imx: fix reference leak when pm_runtime_get_sync fails |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| i2c: imx: fix reference leak when pm_runtime_get_sync fails |
| |
| In i2c_imx_xfer() and i2c_imx_remove(), the pm reference count |
| is not expected to be incremented on return. |
| |
| However, pm_runtime_get_sync will increment pm reference count |
| even failed. Forgetting to putting operation will result in a |
| reference leak here. |
| |
| Replace it with pm_runtime_resume_and_get to keep usage |
| counter balanced. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2020-36781 to this issue. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
