How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:9 kernel-rt-modules-internal.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-rt-modules-internal package and not the kernel-rt-modules-internal package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

dmaengine: ptdma: Fix the error handling path in pt_core_init()

In order to free resources correctly in the error handling path of pt_core_init(), 2 goto's have to be switched. Otherwise, some resources will leak and we will try to release things that have not been allocated yet.

Also move a dev_err() to a place where it is more meaningful.
