In all android releases (Android for MSM, Firefox OS for MSM, QRD Android) from CAF using the linux kernel, memory allocated with devm_kzalloc is automatically released by the kernel if the probe function fails with an error code. This may result in data corruption.

Weakness

The product calls free() twice on the same memory address, potentially leading to modification of unexpected memory locations.
