What it is

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/virtio: fix object leak in virtio_gpu_resource_create_ioctl()

virtio_gpu_resource_create_ioctl() calls drm_gem_object_release() on the

drm_gem_handle_create() error path instead of dropping the reference it

owns, so obj->funcs->free() never runs and the virtio_gpu_object, its

pages and sg table, the resource id and the host-side resource are

leaked.

Use drm_gem_object_put() instead.
