In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/tests: hdmi: Fix memory leaks in drm_display_mode_from_cea_vic()
modprobe drm_hdmi_state_helper_test and then rmmod it, the following
memory leak occurs.
The mode allocated in drm_mode_duplicate() called by
drm_display_mode_from_cea_vic() is not freed, which cause the memory leak:
