Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-10-01 12:08:32 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mt76: mt7915: Fix PCI device refcount leak in mt7915_pci_init_hif2()

As comment of pci_get_device() says, it returns a pci_device with its
refcount increased. We need to call pci_dev_put() to decrease the
refcount. Save the return value of pci_get_device() and call
pci_dev_put() to decrease the refcount.
