CWE-401

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: amt: fix memory leak for advertisement message When a gateway receives an advertisement message, it extracts relay information and then it should be freed. But the advertisement handler doesn't free it. So,…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drivers/base/node.c: fix compaction sysfs file leak Compaction sysfs file is created via compaction_register_node in register_node. But we forgot to remove it in unregister_node. Thus compaction sysfs file…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: powerpc/papr_scm: Fix leaking nvdimm_events_map elements Right now 'char *' elements allocated for individual 'stat_id' in 'papr_scm_priv.nvdimm_events_map[]' during papr_scm_pmu_check_events(), get leaked in…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: fix memory leak in parse_apply_sb_mount_options() If processing the on-disk mount options fails after any memory was allocated in the ext4_fs_context, e.g. s_qf_names, then this memory is leaked. Fix…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: lib/string_helpers: fix not adding strarray to device's resource list Add allocated strarray to device's resource list. This is a must to automatically release strarray when the device disappears. Without…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: phy: qcom-qmp: fix struct clk leak on probe errors Make sure to release the pipe clock reference in case of a late probe error (e.g. probe deferral).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: phy: qcom-qmp: fix reset-controller leak on probe errors Make sure to release the lane reset controller in case of a late probe error (e.g. probe deferral). Note that due to the reset controller being defined…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: jffs2: fix memory leak in jffs2_do_fill_super If jffs2_iget() or d_make_root() in jffs2_do_fill_super() returns an error, we can observe the following kmemleak report: -----------------------------------------…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: firmware: dmi-sysfs: Fix memory leak in dmi_sysfs_register_handle kobject_init_and_add() takes reference even when it fails. According to the doc of kobject_init_and_add() If this function returns an…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: amt: fix possible memory leak in amt_rcv() If an amt receives packets and it finds socket. If it can't find a socket, it should free a received skb. But it doesn't. So, a memory leak would possibly occur.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nf_tables: memleak flow rule from commit path Abort path release flow rule object, however, commit path does not. Update code to destroy these objects before releasing the transaction.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/huge_memory: Fix xarray node memory leak If xas_split_alloc() fails to allocate the necessary nodes to complete the xarray entry split, it sets the xa_state to -ENOMEM, which xas_nomem() then interprets as…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfc: st21nfca: fix memory leaks in EVT_TRANSACTION handling Error paths do not free previously allocated memory. Add devm_kfree() to those failure paths.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: staging: rtl8712: fix a potential memory leak in r871xu_drv_init() In r871xu_drv_init(), if r8712_init_drv_sw() fails, then the memory allocated by r8712_alloc_io_queue() in r8712_usb_dvobj_init() is not…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: coresight: syscfg: Fix memleak on registration failure in cscfg_create_device device_register() calls device_initialize(), according to doc of device_initialize: Use put_device() to give up your reference…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: firmware: sysfb: fix platform-device leak in error path Make sure to free the platform device also in the unlikely event that registration fails.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: jffs2: fix memory leak in jffs2_do_mount_fs If jffs2_build_filesystem() in jffs2_do_mount_fs() returns an error, we can observe the following kmemleak report: --------------------------------------------…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: jffs2: fix memory leak in jffs2_scan_medium If an error is returned in jffs2_scan_eraseblock() and some memory has been added to the jffs2_summary *s, we can observe the following kmemleak report: …

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: brcmfmac: pcie: Release firmwares in the brcmf_pcie_setup error path This avoids leaking memory if brcmf_chip_get_raminfo fails. Note that the CLM blob is released in the device remove path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: watch_queue: Actually free the watch free_watch() does everything barring actually freeing the watch object. Fix this by adding the missing kfree. kmemleak produces a report something like the following. …
