MEDIUMLinux Kernel 5.14-5.15.152, 5.16-6.1.82, 6.2-6.6.22, 6.7-6.7.10, 6.8-6.8.1 - Use-After-Free in Clock Driver
Title source: llmDescription
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: clk: hisilicon: hi3559a: Fix an erroneous devm_kfree() 'p_clk' is an array allocated just before the for loop for all clk that need to be registered.
