Summary

In the Linux kernel, a use-after-free vulnerability was found in the FPGA region subsystem's child_regions_with_firmware() function. Calling of_node_put(child_region) before the error message leads to accessing freed memory.

Risk Assessment

This vulnerability could cause system crashes or potentially privilege escalation during firmware loading errors.

Recommendation

Apply the Linux kernel patch that moves of_node_put() after the pr_err() call.
