CVE-2023-53196
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: dwc3: qcom: Fix potential memory leak Function dwc3_qcom_probe() allocates memory for resource structure which is pointed by parent_res pointer.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.16%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
