Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-09-15 15:07:12 UTC 
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

usb: dwc3: qcom: Fix potential memory leak

Function dwc3_qcom_probe() allocates memory for resource structure
which is pointed by parent_res pointer. This memory is not
freed. This leads to memory leak. Use stack memory to prevent
memory leak.
