Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description A vulnerability in the Linux kernel has been resolved, specifically related to the GFX9 hardware support. The issue concerned the cleaner shader, where an omission in the previous patch led to potential memory leaks. The fix adds necessary deinitialization code for the cleaner shader in the gfx v9 0 sw fini function, ensuring that allocated resources are freed correctly and the GPU state is clean for the next initialization sequence.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
