How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.4 kernel-syms to version 5.14.21-150400.24.158.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-syms package and not the kernel-syms package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.4 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

remoteproc: qcom_q6v5_mss: Fix some leaks in q6v5_alloc_memory_region

The device_node pointer is returned by of_parse_phandle() or of_get_child_by_name() with refcount incremented. We should use of_node_put() on it when done.

This function only call of_node_put(node) when of_address_to_resource succeeds, missing error cases.
