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

LoongArch: Fix missing NULL checks for kstrdup()

  • Replace "of_find_node_by_path("/")" with "of_root" to avoid multiple
calls to "of_node_put()".
  • Fix a potential kernel oops during early boot when memory allocation
fails while parsing CPU model from device tree.
