This is\na borrowed pointer and the probe function does not take a reference to\nit.\n\nThe success and error paths nevertheless call of_node_put(np). This drops\na reference that is owned by the platform device, and can leave\npdev->dev.of_node with an unbalanced reference count.\n\nDo not put the borrowed platform device node from omap2430_probe().\nReferences taken for the child MUSB device are handled by the device core,\nand the ctrl-module phandle reference is still released separately.","published":"2026-08-10T13:20:30.000Z","lastModified":"2026-08-23T13:16:37.000Z","status":"Received","sourceIdentifier":"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":8.4,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"cwe":[],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.00182,"percentile":0.07747,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"high","text":"High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.18%).
