Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: edia: dvbdev: fix a use-after-free In dvb_register_device, pdvbdev is set equal to dvbdev, which is freed in several error-handling paths. However, pdvbdev is not set to NULL after dvbdev's deallocation, causing use-after-frees in many places, for example, in the following call chain: budget_register \|-> dvb_dmxdev_init \|-> dvb_register_device \|-> dvb_dmxdev_release \|-> dvb_unregister_device \|-> dvb_remove_device \|-> dvb_device_put \|-> kref_put When calling dvb_unregister_device, dmxdev->dvbdev (i.e. *pdvbdev in dvb_register_device) could point to memory that had been freed in dvb_register_device. Thereafter, this pointer is transferred to kref_put and triggering a use-after-free.
