Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Fix memory leak [why] Resource release is needed on the error handling path to prevent memory leak. [how] Fix this by adding kfree on the error handling path.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: mpi3mr: Fix memory leaks Fix memory leaks related to operational reply queue's memory segments which are not getting freed while unloading the driver.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: pm8001: Fix tag leaks on error In pm8001_chip_set_dev_state_req(), pm8001_chip_fw_flash_update_req(), pm80xx_chip_phy_ctl_req() and pm8001_chip_reg_dev_req() add missing calls to pm8001_tag_free() to free the allocated tag when pm8001_mpi_build_cmd() fails. Similarly, in pm8001_exec_internal_task_abort(), if the chip ->task_abort method fails, the tag allocated for the abort request task must be freed. Add the missing call to pm8001_tag_free().Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: pm8001: Fix task leak in pm8001_send_abort_all() In pm8001_send_abort_all(), make sure to free the allocated sas task if pm8001_tag_alloc() or pm8001_mpi_build_cmd() fail.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: pm8001: Fix memory leak in pm8001_chip_fw_flash_update_req() In pm8001_chip_fw_flash_update_build(), if pm8001_chip_fw_flash_update_build() fails, the struct fw_control_ex allocated must be freed.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ceph: fix memory leak in ceph_readdir when note_last_dentry returns error Reset the last_readdir at the same time, and add a comment explaining why we don't free last_readdir when dir_emit returns false.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: staging: wfx: fix an error handling in wfx_init_common() One error handler of wfx_init_common() return without calling ieee80211_free_hw(hw), which may result in memory leak. And I add one err label to unify the error handler, which is useful for the subsequent changes.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: habanalabs: fix possible memory leak in MMU DR fini This patch fixes what seems to be copy paste error. We will have a memory leak if the host-resident shadow is NULL (which will likely happen as the DR and HR are not dependent).Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: zorro7xx: Fix a resource leak in zorro7xx_remove_one() The error handling path of the probe releases a resource that is not freed in the remove function. In some cases, a ioremap() must be undone. Add the missing iounmap() call in the remove function.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/imx: Fix memory leak in imx_pd_connector_get_modes Avoid leaking the display mode variable if of_get_drm_display_mode fails. Addresses-Coverity-ID: 1443943 ("Resource leak")Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: openvswitch: fix leak of nested actions While parsing user-provided actions, openvswitch module may dynamically allocate memory and store pointers in the internal copy of the actions. So this memory has to be freed while destroying the actions. Currently there are only two such actions: ct() and set(). However, there are many actions that can hold nested lists of actions and ovs_nla_free_flow_actions() just jumps over them leaking the memory. For example, removal of the flow with the following actions will lead to a leak of the memory allocated by nf_ct_tmpl_alloc(): actions:clone(ct(commit),0) Non-freed set() action may also leak the 'dst' structure for the tunnel info including device references. Under certain conditions with a high rate of flow rotation that may cause significant memory leak problem (2MB per second in reporter's case). The problem is also hard to mitigate, because the user doesn't have direct control over the datapath flows generated by OVS. Fix that by iterating over all the nested actions and freeing everything that needs to be freed recursively. New build time assertion should protect us from this problem if new actions will be added in the future. Unfortunately, openvswitch module doesn't use NLA_F_NESTED, so all attributes has to be explicitly checked. sample() and clone() actions are mixing extra attributes into the user-provided action list. That prevents some code generalization too.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/mempolicy: fix mpol_new leak in shared_policy_replace If mpol_new is allocated but not used in restart loop, mpol_new will be freed via mpol_put before returning to the caller. But refcnt is not initialized yet, so mpol_put could not do the right things and might leak the unused mpol_new. This would happen if mempolicy was updated on the shared shmem file while the sp->lock has been dropped during the memory allocation. This issue could be triggered easily with the below code snippet if there are many processes doing the below work at the same time: shmid = shmget((key_t)5566, 1024 * PAGE_SIZE, 0666|IPC_CREAT); shm = shmat(shmid, 0, 0); loop many times { mbind(shm, 1024 * PAGE_SIZE, MPOL_LOCAL, mask, maxnode, 0); mbind(shm + 128 * PAGE_SIZE, 128 * PAGE_SIZE, MPOL_DEFAULT, mask, maxnode, 0); }Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: block: null_blk: end timed out poll request When poll request is timed out, it is removed from the poll list, but not completed, so the request is leaked, and never get chance to complete. Fix the issue by ending it in timeout handler.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: memory: renesas-rpc-if: fix platform-device leak in error path Make sure to free the flash platform device in the event that registration fails during probe.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/pm: fix a potential gpu_metrics_table memory leak Memory is allocated for gpu_metrics_table in renoir_init_smc_tables(), but not freed in int smu_v12_0_fini_smc_tables(). Free it!Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fs/ntfs3: Fix some memory leaks in an error handling path of 'log_replay()' All error handling paths lead to 'out' where many resources are freed. Do it as well here instead of a direct return, otherwise 'log', 'ra' and 'log->one_page_buf' (at least) will leak.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/pm: fix a potential gpu_metrics_table memory leak Memory is allocated for gpu_metrics_table in renoir_init_smc_tables(), but not freed in int smu_v12_0_fini_smc_tables(). Free it!Show less
