Subject: [PATCH] PCI: endpoint: Fix a double free in __pci_epc_create()
Date: Tue,  7 Jan 2025 15:46:01 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250107074601.789649-1-make24@iscas.ac.cn> (raw)

The put_device(&epc->dev) call will trigger pci_epc_release() which
frees "epc" so the kfree(epc) on the next line is a double free.

Found by code review.

Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
Fixes: 5e8cb4033807 ("PCI: endpoint: Add EP core layer to enable EP controller and EP functions")
