Doc Text:
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's power supply core component. When the device tree (dts) property `power-supplies` has multiple values, an array overrun can occur in the `__power_supply_populate_supplied_from` function due to incorrect memory allocation. This vulnerability could lead to memory corruption, potentially causing system instability or denial of service.

overrun supplied_from array.
