CVE-2024-58003 media: i2c: ds90ub9x3: Fix extra fwnode_handle_put()

What is CVE-2024-58003?

CVE-2024-58003 is a high-severity memory corruption vulnerability in Linux kernel, published on 27 Feb 2025. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.

Official description

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

media: i2c: ds90ub9x3: Fix extra fwnode_handle_put()

The ub913 and ub953 drivers call fwnode_handle_put(priv->sd.fwnode) as part of their remove process, and if the driver is removed multiple times, eventually leads to put "overflow", possibly causing memory corruption or crash.

The fwnode_handle_put() is a leftover from commit 905f88ccebb1 ("media: i2c: ds90ub9x3: Fix sub-device matching"), which changed the code related to the sd.fwnode, but missed removing these fwnode_handle_put() calls.

Weakness: CWE-787
