These\nreferences are normally released by mhi_ep_destroy_device() before the\ndevice itself is removed.\n\nIf dev_set_name() or device_add() fails, the error path currently drops\nonly one reference. The remaining channel references keep the device\nfrom being released and leave the channels associated with a device that\nwas never registered.\n\nRoute both failures through a common unwind path that drops the DL\nchannel reference, the UL channel reference, and the initial reference\nfrom device_initialize().","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4fae8fd4adc7f4765463ddeb1a5fad23936432f6","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/51ddb831a36102fd0ea25f354935e49abce9f0a1","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5587e7871ce994bb079f97fe7e430d99627e5292","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6f12862600bb70e599a614d706a095ea5f8f9858","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8acc3813ab5015af73eeb74c9032443162f122d1"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:55:23.253742848+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-93136","score":0.00215,"percentile":0.11733,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
