- Summary
- cpufreq: davinci: Fix clk use after free
- Details
-
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cpufreq: davinci: Fix clk use after free
The remove function first frees the clks and only then calls cpufrequnregisterdriver(). If one of the cpufreq callbacks is called just before cpufrequnregisterdriver() is run, the freed clks might be used.
