CVE-2023-52840 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
There is no fixed version for RHEL:7 kernel-debug-devel.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-debug-devel package and not the kernel-debug-devel package as distributed by RHEL.
See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: synaptics-rmi4 - fix use after free in rmi_unregister_function()
The put_device() calls rmi_release_function() which frees "fn" so the dereference on the next line "fn->num_of_irqs" is a use after free. Move the put_device() to the end to fix this.
