CVE-2022-50708: Linux

EPSS: 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HSI: ssi_protocol: fix potential resource leak in ssip_pn_open() ssip_pn_open() claims the HSI client's port with hsi_claim_port(). When hsi_register_port_event() gets some error and returns a negetive value, the HSI client's port should be released with hsi_release_port(). Fix it by calling hsi_release_port() when hsi_register_port_event() fails.

Affected products

• Linux Linux: from 3.16, before 5.19.17 (fixed in 5.19.17); from 5.20, before 6.0.3 (fixed in 6.0.3)
