Description
A memory leak vulnerability was identified and fixed in the Linux kernel's AMD GPU display driver (amdgpu_dm). The issue occurred when a sink was connected and the drm_edid pointer was overwritten without freeing the previous allocation, causing a memory leak on resume. The fix involves freeing the previous drm_edid before updating it.
