In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: thunderbay: fix possible memory leak in thunderbay_build_functions()
The thunderbay_add_functions() will free memory of thunderbay_funcs
when everything is ok, but thunderbay_funcs will not be freed when
thunderbay_add_functions() fails, then there will be a memory leak,
so we need to add kfree() when thunderbay_add_functions() fails to
fix it.
In addition, doing some cleaner works, moving kfree(funcs) from
thunderbay_add_functions() to thunderbay_build_functions().

Kodem intelligence
Severity tells you how bad this could be in the worst case. It does not tell you whether you are exposed. Exploitability and impact are functions of runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A vulnerable package can sit in your dependency tree and never run.
Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter. Kodem's runtime-powered SCA identifies whether this CVE is reachable in your applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is CVE-2022-50557? CVE-2022-50557 is a unknown-severity security vulnerability. No fixed version is listed yet.
- Is there a fix for CVE-2022-50557? No fixed version is listed for CVE-2022-50557 yet. Monitor the advisory for updates and apply mitigations in the interim.
- Is CVE-2022-50557 exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether CVE-2022-50557 is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

- What actually determines whether CVE-2022-50557 is exploitable, and how bad it is? Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.
