Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a reference leak in the Linux kernel's ti dra7-atl clock driver. Specifically, the function pm_runtime_get_sync() increments a power management usage counter, but in some error paths, the corresponding decrement operation pm_runtime_put_sync() was missing. This omission causes the usage counter to be incorrectly incremented without being decremented, leading to a reference leak.

Impact Analysis

The reference leak caused by this vulnerability can lead to improper power management behavior in the affected device. Over time, this may cause increased power consumption or resource exhaustion, potentially impacting system stability or performance.
