Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-06-18 12:11:14 UTC 
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

remoteproc: imx_rproc: Fix refcount leak in imx_rproc_addr_init

of_parse_phandle() returns a node pointer with refcount
incremented, we should use of_node_put() on it when not needed anymore.
This function has two paths missing of_node_put().
