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

of/overlay: don't leak fragment references when changeset init fails

init_overlay_changeset() stores the number of initialized fragments
in ovcs->count only on full success. When find_target() or the
__symbols__ lookup fails partway through, the target and overlay
references taken for the fragments initialized so far are never
dropped: free_overlay_changeset() bounds its cleanup loop by
ovcs->count, which is still 0.

Store the running count on the error path so free_overlay_changeset()
puts whatever was set up. The store is guarded by ovcs->fragments
because on the allocation-failure path cnt still holds the counting
pass total while there is no fragments array; everywhere else cnt
only counts fully-initialized fragments.
