  "summary": "unicode: Fix utf8_load() error path",
  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nunicode: Fix utf8_load() error path\n\nutf8_load() requests the symbol \"utf8_data_table\" and then checks if the\nrequested UTF-8 version is supported. If it's unsupported, it tries to\nput the data table using symbol_put(). If an unsupported version is\nrequested, symbol_put() fails like this:\n\n kernel BUG at kernel/module/main.c:786!\n RIP: 0010:__symbol_put+0x93/0xb0\n Call Trace:\n  <TASK>\n  ? __die_body.cold+0x19/0x27\n  ? die+0x2e/0x50\n  ? do_trap+0xca/0x110\n  ? do_error_trap+0x65/0x80\n  ? __symbol_put+0x93/0xb0\n  ? exc_invalid_op+0x51/0x70\n  ? __symbol_put+0x93/0xb0\n  ? asm_exc_invalid_op+0x1a/0x20\n  ? __pfx_cmp_name+0x10/0x10\n  ? __symbol_put+0x93/0xb0\n  ? __symbol_put+0x62/0xb0\n  utf8_load+0xf8/0x150\n\nThat happens because symbol_put() expects the unique string that\nidentify the symbol, instead of a pointer to the loaded symbol. Fix that\nby using such string.",
