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

remoteproc: core: Fix idafree call while not allocated

In the rprocalloc() function, on error, putdevice(&rproc->dev) is called, leading to the call of the rproctyperelease() function. An error can occurs before idaalloc is called.

In such case in rproctyperelease(), the condition (rproc->index >= 0) is true as rproc->index has been initialized to 0. idafree() is called reporting a warning: [ 4.181906] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 24 at lib/idr.c:525 idafree+0x100/0x164 [ 4.186378] stm32-display-dsi 5a000000.dsi: Fixed dependency cycle(s) with /soc/dsi@5a000000/panel@0 [ 4.188854] idafree called for id=0 which is not allocated.

Calling idaalloc earlier in rprocalloc ensures that the rproc->index is properly set.
