Summary

In the Linux kernel, a memory leak of the dynamic software node was found in the GPIO aggregator driver. The node is created for the aggregator platform device when using configfs but is not destroyed upon device deactivation.

Risk Assessment

The memory leak may gradually exhaust system resources, potentially destabilizing the system or applications relying on the GPIO aggregator over time.

Recommendation

Immediately update the Linux kernel to a version that includes the fix to destroy the software node when deactivating the GPIO aggregator.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gpio: aggregator: remove the software node when deactivating the aggregator The dynamic software node we create for the aggregator platform device when using configfs is leaked when the device is deactivated. Destroy it as the last step in the tear-down path.
