CVE-2026-43397
MEDIUM
CVSS 5.5
No EPSS data
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/bridge: samsung-dsim: Fix memory leak in error path
In samsung_dsim_host_attach(), drm_bridge_add() is called to add the
bridge. However, if samsung_dsim_register_te_irq() or
pdata->host_ops->attach() fails afterwards, the function returns
without removing the bridge, causing a memory leak.
Fix this by adding proper error handling with goto labels to ensure
drm_bridge_remove() is called in all error paths. Also ensure that
samsung_dsim_unregister_te_irq() is called if the attach operation
fails after the TE IRQ has been registered.
samsung_dsim_unregister_te_irq() function is moved without changes
to be before samsung_dsim_host_attach() to avoid forward declaration.
