Subject: CVE-2022-49794: iio: adc: at91_adc: fix possible memory leak in at91_adc_allocate_trigger()
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...nel.org>
Description
===========
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: adc: at91_adc: fix possible memory leak in at91_adc_allocate_trigger()
If iio_trigger_register() returns error, it should call iio_trigger_free()
to give up the reference that hold in iio_trigger_alloc(), so that it can
call iio_trig_release() to free memory when the refcount hit to 0.
The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2022-49794 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========
The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
