Suppose I compile a kernel module in kernel 2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64, but I load it successfully in kernel 2.6.32-432.el6.x86_64. Can this module works properly? Or
whether it is harm to system?

In your case both kernels are 2.6.32, I there is probably only bugfixes between these two kernels (the core kernel code shouldn't have changed), so I think it *can* work properly, provided your module didn't rely on a bug fixed in the new
kernel.
