**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Linux kernel (affected versions not specified) **Description** A refcount underflow issue has been resolved in the Linux kernel. The issue occurs when `nouveau bo ref()` is called on a `nouveau bo` without initializing it, leading to a refcount underflow. To fix this, the code now cleans up manually instead of calling `nouveau bo ref()` in the unwind path of `drm gem object init()`. **Recommendations** At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
