Linux Kernel up to 7.2.5 dsi use after free

CVSS Meta Temp Score CVSS is a standardized scoring system to determine possibilities of attacks. The Temp Score considers temporal factors like disclosure, exploit and countermeasures. The unique Meta Score calculates the average score of different sources to provide a normalized scoring system.	Current Exploit Price (≈) Our analysts are monitoring exploit markets and are in contact with vulnerability brokers. The range indicates the observed or calculated exploit price to be seen on exploit markets. A good indicator to understand the monetary effort required for and the popularity of an attack.	CTI Interest Score Our Cyber Threat Intelligence team is monitoring different web sites, mailing lists, exploit markets and social media networks. The CTI Interest Score identifies the interest of attackers and the security community for this specific vulnerability in real-time. A high score indicates an elevated risk to be targeted for this vulnerability.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/omap: dsi: Do not copy isr table To be able to unregister stuff from isrs, the corresponding table was copied. Nobody seems to unregister stuff that way, so it does not help. But there are stack-allocated objects passed to these isrs giving chances of UAF of these objects if irqs are unregistered while they are handled, so better do not copy that table.
