Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-03-06 16:01:39 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

remoteproc: core: Fix ida_free call while not allocated

In the rproc_alloc() function, on error, put_device(&rproc->dev) is
called, leading to the call of the rproc_type_release() function.
An error can occurs before ida_alloc is called.

In such case in rproc_type_release(), the condition (rproc->index >= 0) is
true as rproc->index has been  initialized to 0.
ida_free() is called reporting a warning:

Calling ida_alloc earlier in rproc_alloc ensures that the rproc->index is
properly set.
