In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drivers/base/memory: fix memory block reference leak in poison accounting
memblknrpoisoninc() and memblknrpoisonsub() look up a memory block via findmemoryblockbyid(), which acquires a reference to the memory block device.
Both helpers use the returned memory block without dropping that reference, leaking the device reference on each successful lookup. Drop the reference after updating nr_hwpoison.
