Overview
About vulnerability
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtw88: Use devm_kmemdup() in rtw_set_supported_band()
Simplify the code by using device managed memory allocations.
This also fixes a memory leak in rtw_register_hw(). The supported bands were not freed in the error path.
Copied from commit 145df52a8671 (“wifi: rtw89: Convert rtw89_core_set_supported_band to use devm_*”).
