In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: cec: core: Fix kmemleak due to missed rc_free_device() call
The commit dccc0c3ddf8f ("media: rc: fix race between unregister and urb/irq callbacks") removed the implicit call to rc_free_device() from rc_unregister_device(). However, the commit missed to remove the NULL assignment of adap->rc that is now causing rc_free_device() to never be called on an allocated rc device.
kmemleak reports following after e.g. dw-hdmi unbind:

Remove the assignment of adap->rc to NULL to let cec_delete_adapter() free the allocated rc device after last user of the cec device exits to fix the kmemleak.
