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

mtd: rawnand: fix double free in atmel_pmecc_create_user()

The user pointer was converted from being allocated with kzalloc() to being allocated by devm_kzalloc(). Calling kfree(user) will lead to a double free.

Weakness

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