CVE-2026-23015 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gpio: mpsse: fix reference leak in gpio_mpsse_probe() error paths The reference obtained by calling usb_get_dev() is not released in the gpio_mpsse_probe() error paths. Fix that by using device managed helper functions. Also remove the usb_put_dev() call in the disconnect function since now it will be released automatically.
A reference leak vulnerability has been identified in the Linux kernel's GPIO MPSSE driver. The issue arises in the 'gpio_mpsse_probe()' function, where a reference obtained from 'usb_get_dev()' is not properly released during error handling. This vulnerability affects the Linux kernel stable tree.
The vulnerability has been addressed in the official Linux Git repository. Users can download the patched version from the Linux kernel stable tree.
