In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mctp i2c: don't count unused / invalid keys for flow release We're currently hitting the WARN_ON in mctp_i2c_flow_release: if (midev->release_count > midev->i2c_lock_count) { WARN_ONCE(1, "release count overflow"); This may be hit if we expire a flow before sending the first packet it contains - as we will not be pairing the increment of release_count (performed on flow release) with the i2c lock operation (only performed on actual TX). To fix this, only release a flow if we've encountered it previously (ie, dev_flow_state doe
