kernel: rust_binder: clear freeze listener on node removal
    </Bugzilla>
    <CWE>CWE-911</CWE>
    <Details xml:lang="en:us" source="Mitre">
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

rust_binder: clear freeze listener on node removal

Generally userspace is supposed to explicitly clear freeze listeners
before they drop the refcount on the node ref to zero, but there's
nothing forcing that. Currently, in this scenario the freeze listener
remains in the freeze_listeners rbtree and in the remote node's freeze
listener list, even though the ref for which the listener is registered
is gone. This could potentially lead to a memory leak due to a refcount
cycle. Thus, remove the freeze listener in this scenario.
    </Details>
    <Details xml:lang="en:us" source="Red Hat">
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Rust Binder component. This vulnerability occurs when a freeze listener is not properly cleared upon node removal, leading to a reference count cycle. This can result in a memory leak, potentially impacting system stability and performance over time.
