CVE-2022-49842

Estado: ModificadaAlta (7.8)—

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

ASoC: core: Fix use-after-free in snd_soc_exit()

It's bacause in snd_soc_init(), snd_soc_util_init() is possble to fail, but its ret is ignored, which makes soc_dummy_dev unregistered twice.

To fix it, handle error and stop snd_soc_init() when util_init() fail. Also clean debugfs when util_init() or driver_register() fail.
