Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-06-18 12:12:42 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

tty: serial: Fix refcount leak bug in ucc_uart.c

In soc_info(), of_find_node_by_type() will return a node pointer
with refcount incremented. We should use of_node_put() when it is
not used anymore.
