Description

A flaw was found in the `usb: gadget: f_subset` module of the Linux kernel. The `geth_free()` function fails to decrement a reference count that was incremented by `geth_alloc()`. This unbalanced reference count can lead to a resource leak, preventing the configuration of attributes through the configfs interface after a function has been unlinked. This can result in a denial of service for specific USB gadget configurations.
