Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: firewire: ohci: prevent leak of left-over IRQ on unbind Commit 5a95f1ded28691e6 ("firewire: ohci: use devres for requested IRQ") also removed the call to free_irq() in pci_remove(), leading to a leftover irq of devm_request_irq() at pci_disable_msi() in pci_remove() when unbinding the driver from the device remove_proc_entry: removing non-empty directory 'irq/136', leaking at least 'firewire_ohci' Call Trace: ? remove_proc_entry+0x19c/0x1c0 ? __warn+0x81/0x130 ? remove_proc_entry+0x19c/0x1c0 ? report_bug+0x171/0x1a0 ? console_unlock+0x78/0x120 ? handle_bug+0x3c/0x80 ? exc_invalid_op+0x17/0x70 ? asm_exc_invalid_op+0x1a/0x20 ? remove_proc_entry+0x19c/0x1c0 unregister_irq_proc+0xf4/0x120 free_desc+0x3d/0xe0 ? kfree+0x29f/0x2f0 irq_free_descs+0x47/0x70 msi_domain_free_locked.part.0+0x19d/0x1d0 msi_domain_free_irqs_all_locked+0x81/0xc0 pci_free_msi_irqs+0x12/0x40 pci_disable_msi+0x4c/0x60 pci_remove+0x9d/0xc0 [firewire_ohci 01b483699bebf9cb07a3d69df0aa2bee71db1b26] pci_device_remove+0x37/0xa0 device_release_driver_internal+0x19f/0x200 unbind_store+0xa1/0xb0 remove irq with devm_free_irq() before pci_disable_msi() also remove it in fail_msi: of pci_probe() as this would lead to an identical leakShow less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: x86: Mark target gfn of emulated atomic instruction as dirty When emulating an atomic access on behalf of the guest, mark the target gfn dirty if the CMPXCHG by KVM is attempted and doesn't fault. This fixes a bug where KVM effectively corrupts guest memory during live migration by writing to guest memory without informing userspace that the page is dirty. Marking the page dirty got unintentionally dropped when KVM's emulated CMPXCHG was converted to do a user access. Before that, KVM explicitly mapped the guest page into kernel memory, and marked the page dirty during the unmap phase. Mark the page dirty even if the CMPXCHG fails, as the old data is written back on failure, i.e. the page is still written. The value written is guaranteed to be the same because the operation is atomic, but KVM's ABI is that all writes are dirty logged regardless of the value written. And more importantly, that's what KVM did before the buggy commit. Huge kudos to the folks on the Cc list (and many others), who did all the actual work of triaging and debugging. base-commit: 6769ea8da8a93ed4630f1ce64df6aafcaabfce64Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rpmsg: virtio: Free driver_override when rpmsg_remove() Free driver_override when rpmsg_remove(), otherwise the following memory leak will occur: unreferenced object 0xffff0000d55d7080 (size 128): comm "kworker/u8:2", pid 56, jiffies 4294893188 (age 214.272s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 72 70 6d 73 67 5f 6e 73 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 rpmsg_ns........ 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ backtrace: [<000000009c94c9c1>] __kmem_cache_alloc_node+0x1f8/0x320 [<000000002300d89b>] __kmalloc_node_track_caller+0x44/0x70 [<00000000228a60c3>] kstrndup+0x4c/0x90 [<0000000077158695>] driver_set_override+0xd0/0x164 [<000000003e9c4ea5>] rpmsg_register_device_override+0x98/0x170 [<000000001c0c89a8>] rpmsg_ns_register_device+0x24/0x30 [<000000008bbf8fa2>] rpmsg_probe+0x2e0/0x3ec [<00000000e65a68df>] virtio_dev_probe+0x1c0/0x280 [<00000000443331cc>] really_probe+0xbc/0x2dc [<00000000391064b1>] __driver_probe_device+0x78/0xe0 [<00000000a41c9a5b>] driver_probe_device+0xd8/0x160 [<000000009c3bd5df>] __device_attach_driver+0xb8/0x140 [<0000000043cd7614>] bus_for_each_drv+0x7c/0xd4 [<000000003b929a36>] __device_attach+0x9c/0x19c [<00000000a94e0ba8>] device_initial_probe+0x14/0x20 [<000000003c999637>] bus_probe_device+0xa0/0xacShow less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: SOF: amd: Fix memory leak in amd_sof_acp_probe() Driver uses kasprintf() to initialize fw_{code,data}_bin members of struct acp_dev_data, but kfree() is never called to deallocate the memory, which results in a memory leak. Fix the issue by switching to devm_kasprintf(). Additionally, ensure the allocation was successful by checking the pointer validity.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/vmwgfx: fix a memleak in vmw_gmrid_man_get_node When ida_alloc_max fails, resources allocated before should be freed, including *res allocated by kmalloc and ttm_resource_init.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/tegra: rgb: Fix missing clk_put() in the error handling paths of tegra_dc_rgb_probe() If clk_get_sys(..., "pll_d2_out0") fails, the clk_get_sys() call must be undone. Add the missing clk_put and a new 'put_pll_d_out0' label in the error handling path, and use it.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: mctp: take ownership of skb in mctp_local_output Currently, mctp_local_output only takes ownership of skb on success, and we may leak an skb if mctp_local_output fails in specific states; the skb ownership isn't transferred until the actual output routing occurs. Instead, make mctp_local_output free the skb on all error paths up to the route action, so it always consumes the passed skb.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipv6: fix potential "struct net" leak in inet6_rtm_getaddr() It seems that if userspace provides a correct IFA_TARGET_NETNSID value but no IFA_ADDRESS and IFA_LOCAL attributes, inet6_rtm_getaddr() returns -EINVAL with an elevated "struct net" refcount.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xen-netfront: Add missing skb_mark_for_recycle Notice that skb_mark_for_recycle() is introduced later than fixes tag in commit 6a5bcd84e886 ("page_pool: Allow drivers to hint on SKB recycling"). It is believed that fixes tag were missing a call to page_pool_release_page() between v5.9 to v5.14, after which is should have used skb_mark_for_recycle(). Since v6.6 the call page_pool_release_page() were removed (in commit 535b9c61bdef ("net: page_pool: hide page_pool_release_page()") and remaining callers converted (in commit 6bfef2ec0172 ("Merge branch 'net-page_pool-remove-page_pool_release_page'")). This leak became visible in v6.8 via commit dba1b8a7ab68 ("mm/page_pool: catch page_pool memory leaks").Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ice: Fix DMA mappings leak Fix leak, when user changes ring parameters. During reallocation of RX buffers, new DMA mappings are created for those buffers. New buffers with different RX ring count should substitute older ones, but those buffers were freed in ice_vsi_cfg_rxq and reallocated again with ice_alloc_rx_buf. kfree on rx_buf caused leak of already mapped DMA. Reallocate ZC with xdp_buf struct, when BPF program loads. Reallocate back to rx_buf, when BPF program unloads. If BPF program is loaded/unloaded and XSK pools are created, reallocate RX queues accordingly in XDP_SETUP_XSK_POOL handler. Steps for reproduction: while : do for ((i=0; i<=8160; i=i+32)) do ethtool -G enp130s0f0 rx $i tx $i sleep 0.5 ethtool -g enp130s0f0 done doneShow less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sched/debug: fix dentry leak in update_sched_domain_debugfs Kuyo reports that the pattern of using debugfs_remove(debugfs_lookup()) leaks a dentry and with a hotplug stress test, the machine eventually runs out of memory. Fix this up by using the newly created debugfs_lookup_and_remove() call instead which properly handles the dentry reference counting logic.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: fix memory leak when using debugfs_lookup() When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it, otherwise the memory will leak over time. Fix this up by properly calling dput().Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: soc: brcmstb: pm-arm: Fix refcount leak and __iomem leak bugs In brcmstb_pm_probe(), there are two kinds of leak bugs: (1) we need to add of_node_put() when for_each__matching_node() breaks (2) we need to add iounmap() for each iomap in fail pathShow less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: v4l2-tpg: fix some memleaks in tpg_alloc In tpg_alloc, resources should be deallocated in each and every error-handling paths, since they are allocated in for statements.
