Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: imx-jpeg: Cleanup after an allocation error When allocation failures are not cleaned up by the driver, further allocation errors will be false-positives, which will cause buffers to remain uninitialized and cause NULL pointer dereferences. Ensure proper cleanup of failed allocations to prevent these issues.
