| Subject: CVE-2025-37817: mcb: fix a double free bug in chameleon_parse_gdd() |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| mcb: fix a double free bug in chameleon_parse_gdd() |
| |
| In chameleon_parse_gdd(), if mcb_device_register() fails, 'mdev' |
| would be released in mcb_device_register() via put_device(). |
| Thus, goto 'err' label and free 'mdev' again causes a double free. |
| Just return if mcb_device_register() fails. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2025-37817 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: |
