## Overview

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

crypto: atmel-sha204a - Fix OOM ->tfm_count leak

If memory allocation fails, decrement ->tfm_count to avoid blocking
future reads.

## Affected

- `linux_kernel >= 5.3, < 5.10.253`
- `linux_kernel >= 5.11, < 6.1.167`
- `linux_kernel >= 6.2, < 6.6.130`
- `linux_kernel >= 6.7, < 6.12.78`
- `linux_kernel >= 6.13, < 6.18.20`
- `linux_kernel >= 6.19, < 6.19.10`
- `linux_kernel = 7.0`

## Remediation

Upgrade past the affected range:

- `linux_kernel 6.19.10`
