In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: imx-jpeg: Cleanup after an allocation error
When allocation failures are not cleaned up by the driver, further
allocation errors will be false-positives, which will cause buffers to
remain uninitialized and cause NULL pointer dereferences.
Ensure proper cleanup of failed allocations to prevent these issues.
