CVE-2022-48698
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: fix memory leak when using debugfs_lookup() When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it, otherwise the memory will leak over time.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.21%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
