Summary

In the Linux kernel, in drm_syncobj_find_fence() there is a memory leak because drm_syncobj_find() takes a reference to syncobj, but the early return does not drop the reference. The fix drops the reference before the early return.

Risk Assessment

The vulnerability leads to kernel memory leak, which over time can cause resource exhaustion and system crash.
