  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nfirmware: arm_scmi: Fix slab-use-after-free in scmi_bus_notifier()\n\nThe scmi_dev->name is released prematurely in __scmi_device_destroy(),\nwhich causes slab-use-after-free when accessing scmi_dev->name in\nscmi_bus_notifier().
