    Changed Description In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xen/pcpu: fix possible memory leak in register_pcpu() In device_add(), dev_set_name() is called to allocate name, if it returns error, the name need be freed. As comment of device_register() says, it should use put_device() to give up the reference in the error path. So fix this by calling put_device(), then the name can be freed in kobject_cleanup(). Rejected reason: This CVE ID has been rejected or withdrawn by its CVE Numbering Authority.
