How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.5 kernel-macros to version 5.14.21-150500.55.133.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-macros package and not the kernel-macros package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.5 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

media: v4l2-core: Fix a potential resource leak in v4l2_fwnode_parse_link()

If fwnode_graph_get_remote_endpoint() fails, 'fwnode' is known to be NULL, so fwnode_handle_put() is a no-op.

Release the reference taken from a previous fwnode_graph_get_port_parent() call instead.

Also handle fwnode_graph_get_port_parent() failures.

In order to fix these issues, add an error handling path to the function and the needed gotos.
