From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]> Description =========== In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: musb: omap2430: Do not put borrowed of_node in probe omap2430_probe() stores pdev->dev.of_node in a local np variable. This is a borrowed pointer and the probe function does not take a reference to it. The success and error paths nevertheless call of_node_put(np). This drops a reference that is owned by the platform device, and can leave pdev->dev.of_node with an unbalanced reference count. Do not put the borrowed platform device node from omap2430_probe(). References taken for the child MUSB device are handled by the device core, and the ctrl-module phandle reference is still released separately. The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-68371 to this issue.

Unaffected versions might change over time as fixes are backported to older supported kernel versions.

Affected files ============== The file(s) affected by this issue are: drivers/usb/musb/omap2430.c Mitigation ========== The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this issue can be found at these commits: https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/eed56f105a7f70cbcfceb4df6deb6870fc58214d https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/58d1c81c0b54a0b9aa6d6af077b09aa2f1bd2193 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0950ac52426b0ab32d3b8cf4afe1711668b19cb8 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6c525c851e5912b9753622d796f2bc55c4913b04 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c947360ae63eee1c9eacc030dd6f5a53f717addf
