      <title>CVE-2024-38554 — ax25: Fix reference count leak issue of net_device</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2024-38554</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ax25: Fix reference count leak issue of net_device&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There is a reference count leak issue of the object &amp;#34;net_device&amp;#34; in
ax25_dev_device_down(). When the ax25 device is shutting down, the
ax25_dev_device_down() drops the reference count of net_device one
or zero times depending on if we goto unlock_put or not, which will
cause memory leak.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In order to solve the above issue, decrease the reference count of
net_device after dev-&amp;gt;ax25_ptr is set to null.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
