Description

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's `au1200fb` framebuffer driver. When the `platform_get_irq` function fails during the `au1200fb_drv_probe` process, the driver incorrectly returns an error without releasing allocated memory. This memory leak could be exploited by a local attacker, potentially leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) due to resource exhaustion.
