Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-05-06 13:06:31 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

dm mpath: Add missing dm_put_device when failing to get scsi dh name

When commit fd81bc5cca8f ("scsi: device_handler: Return error pointer in
scsi_dh_attached_handler_name()") added code to fail parsing the path if
scsi_dh_attached_handler_name() failed with -ENOMEM, it didn't clean up
the reference to the path device that had just been taken. Fix this, and
steamline the error paths of parse_path() a little.
