In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: dvbdev: Fix memory leak in dvb_media_device_free()
dvb_media_device_free() is leaking memory. Free dvbdev->adapter->conn
before setting it to NULL, as documented in include/media/media-device.h:
The media_entity instance itself must be freed explicitly by the driver
if required.
The product does not sufficiently track and release allocated memory after it has been used, which slowly consumes remaining memory.
