stm class: Fix a double free in stm_register_device()

published 2024-06-21 2 y ago modified 2026-06-17 4 mo ago also EUVD-2024-37490

cvss: 7.8; version 3.1, NVD
cisa kev: Not listed; not in CISA's catalog
epss: 0.3%; EPSS 0.3% chance of exploitation in 30 days, percentile 16%
public exploits: 0; none known

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

The put_device(&stm->dev) call will trigger stm_device_release() which frees "stm" so the vfree(stm) on the next line is a double free.
