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

Description The issue is related to an erroneous devm kfree() in the Linux kernel, specifically in the hi3559a component. It involves an array p clk allocated for clock registration, which is incremented at each loop iteration. If a clk register() call fails, p clk may point to something different from what should be freed, leading to a potential issue. The problem can cause a denial of service.
