Recommendation: Monitor — no exploitation signal at the moment.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: fix module reference leakage from bdev_open_by_dev error path
At the time bdev_may_open() is called, module reference is grabbed
already, hence module reference should be released if bdev_may_open()
failed.
This problem is found by code review.
