| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_ll: Fix firmware leak on error path
Smatch reports:
drivers/bluetooth/hci_ll.c:587 download_firmware() warn:
'fw' from request_firmware() not released on lines: 544.
In download_firmware(), if request_firmware() succeeds but the returned
firmware content is invalid (no data or zero size), the function returns
without releasing the firmware, resulting in a resource leak.
Fix this by calling release_firmware() before returning when
request_firmware() succeeded but the firmware content is invalid. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix iloc.bh leak in ext4_fc_replay_inode() error paths
During code review, Joseph found that ext4_fc_replay_inode() calls
ext4_get_fc_inode_loc() to get the inode location, which holds a
reference to iloc.bh that must be released via brelse().
However, several error paths jump to the 'out' label without
releasing iloc.bh:
- ext4_handle_dirty_metadata() failure
- sync_dirty_buffer() failure
- ext4_mark_inode_used() failure
- ext4_iget() failure
Fix this by introducing an 'out_brelse' label placed just before
the existing 'out' label to ensure iloc.bh is always released.
Additionally, make ext4_fc_replay_inode() propagate errors
properly instead of always returning 0. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: Fix cred ref leak in nfsd_nl_threads_set_doit().
syzbot reported memory leak of struct cred. [0]
nfsd_nl_threads_set_doit() passes get_current_cred() to
nfsd_svc(), but put_cred() is not called after that.
The cred is finally passed down to _svc_xprt_create(),
which calls get_cred() with the cred for struct svc_xprt.
The ownership of the refcount by get_current_cred() is not
transferred to anywhere and is just leaked.
nfsd_svc() is also called from write_threads(), but it does
not bump file->f_cred there.
nfsd_nl_threads_set_doit() is called from sendmsg() and
current->cred does not go away.
Let's use current_cred() in nfsd_nl_threads_set_doit().

This occurs when allocating MSI-X vectors for an NVMe device. During
allocation the XIVE code creates a struct xive_irq_data and stores it
in irq_data->chip_data.
When the MSI-X irqdomain is later freed, xive_irq_free_data() is
responsible for retrieving this structure and freeing it. However,
after commit cc0cc23babc9 ("powerpc/xive: Untangle xive from child
interrupt controller drivers"), xive_irq_free_data() retrieves the
chip_data using irq_get_chip_data(), which looks up the data through
the child domain.
This is incorrect because the XIVE-specific irq data is associated with
the XIVE (parent) domain. As a result the lookup fails and the allocated
struct xive_irq_data is never freed, leading to the kmemleak report
shown above.
Fix this by retrieving the irq_data from the correct domain using
irq_domain_get_irq_data() and then accessing the chip_data via
irq_data_get_irq_chip_data(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: fix ntfs_mount_options leak in ntfs_fill_super()
In ntfs_fill_super(), the fc->fs_private pointer is set to NULL without
first freeing the memory it points to. This causes the subsequent call to
ntfs_fs_free() to skip freeing the ntfs_mount_options structure.
This results in a kmemleak report:

This issue can be reproduced using the following commands:
fallocate -l 100M test.file
mount test.file /tmp/test
Since sbi->options is duplicated from fc->fs_private and does not
directly use the memory allocated for fs_private, it is unnecessary to
set fc->fs_private to NULL.
Additionally, this patch simplifies the code by utilizing the helper
function put_mount_options() instead of open-coding the cleanup logic. |
| OpenSSH server (sshd) 9.1 introduced a double-free vulnerability during options.kex_algorithms handling. This is fixed in OpenSSH 9.2. The double free can be leveraged, by an unauthenticated remote attacker in the default configuration, to jump to any location in the sshd address space. One third-party report states "remote code execution is theoretically possible." |
| png_create_info_struct in png.c in libpng 1.6.36 has a memory leak, as demonstrated by pngcp. NOTE: a third party has stated "I don't think it is libpng's job to free this buffer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
soc: mediatek: svs: Fix memory leak in svs_enable_debug_write()
In svs_enable_debug_write(), the buf allocated by memdup_user_nul()
is leaked if kstrtoint() fails.
Fix this by using __free(kfree) to automatically free buf, eliminating
the need for explicit kfree() calls and preventing leaks.
[Angelo: Added missing cleanup.h inclusion] |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mtd: parsers: Fix memory leak in mtd_parser_tplink_safeloader_parse()
The function mtd_parser_tplink_safeloader_parse() allocates buf via
mtd_parser_tplink_safeloader_read_table(). If the allocation for
parts[idx].name fails inside the loop, the code jumps to the err_free
label without freeing buf, leading to a memory leak.
Fix this by freeing the temporary buffer buf in the err_free label.
Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool
and code review. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: chips-media: wave5: Fix memory leak on codec_info allocation failure
In wave5_vpu_open_enc() and wave5_vpu_open_dec(), a vpu instance is
allocated via kzalloc(). If the subsequent allocation for inst->codec_info
fails, the functions return -ENOMEM without freeing the previously
allocated instance, causing a memory leak.
Fix this by calling kfree() on the instance in this error path to ensure
it is properly released. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rust: pwm: Fix potential memory leak on init error
When initializing a PWM chip using pwmchip_alloc(), the allocated device
owns an initial reference that must be released on all error paths.
If __pinned_init() were to fail, the allocated pwm_chip would currently
leak because the error path returns without calling pwmchip_put(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpib: Fix memory leak in ni_usb_init()
In ni_usb_init(), if ni_usb_setup_init() fails, the function returns
-EFAULT without freeing the allocated writes buffer, leading to a
memory leak.
Additionally, ni_usb_setup_init() returns 0 on failure, which causes
ni_usb_init() to return -EFAULT, an inappropriate error code for this
situation.
Fix the leak by freeing writes in the error path. Modify
ni_usb_setup_init() to return -EINVAL on failure and propagate this
error code in ni_usb_init(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tpm: tpm_i2c_infineon: Fix locality leak on get_burstcount() failure
get_burstcount() can return -EBUSY on timeout. When this happens, the
function returns directly without releasing the locality that was
acquired at the beginning of tpm_tis_i2c_send().
Use goto out_err to ensure proper cleanup when get_burstcount() fails. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mfd: arizona: Fix regulator resource leak on wm5102_clear_write_sequencer() failure
The wm5102_clear_write_sequencer() helper may return an error
and just return, bypassing the cleanup sequence and causing
regulators to remain enabled, leading to a resource leak.
Change the direct return to jump to the err_reset label to
properly free the resources. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
af_unix: Fix memleak of newsk in unix_stream_connect().
When prepare_peercred() fails in unix_stream_connect(),
unix_release_sock() is not called for newsk, and the memory
is leaked.
Let's move prepare_peercred() before unix_create1(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i3c: dw: Fix memory leak in dw_i3c_master_i2c_xfers()
The dw_i3c_master_i2c_xfers() function allocates memory for the xfer
structure using dw_i3c_master_alloc_xfer(). If pm_runtime_resume_and_get()
fails, the function returns without freeing the allocated xfer, resulting
in a memory leak.
Add a dw_i3c_master_free_xfer() call to the error path to ensure the
allocated memory is properly freed.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: smartpqi: Fix memory leak in pqi_report_phys_luns()
pqi_report_phys_luns() fails to release the rpl_list buffer when
encountering an unsupported data format or when the allocation for
rpl_16byte_wwid_list fails. These early returns bypass the cleanup logic,
leading to memory leaks.
Consolidate the error handling by adding an out_free_rpl_list label and use
goto statements to ensure rpl_list is consistently freed on failure.
Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool and
code review. |
| A security vulnerability has been detected in GPAC up to 2.4.0. Affected by this issue is the function Media_GetSample of the file src/isomedia/media.c of the component MP4Box. Such manipulation of the argument cat leads to memory leak. The attack can only be performed from a local environment. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used. The name of the patch is e79c5cbe8b3fed27f4854ec229457d30c96206f1. It is best practice to apply a patch to resolve this issue. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: ch341: fix memory leaks on probe failures
Make sure to deregister the controller, disable pins, and kill and free
the RX URB on probe failures to mirror disconnect and avoid memory
leaks and use-after-free.
Also add an explicit URB kill on disconnect for symmetry (even if that
is not strictly required as USB core would have stopped it in the
current setup). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/stat: fix memory leak on damon_start() failure in damon_stat_start()
Destroy the DAMON context and reset the global pointer when damon_start()
fails. Otherwise, the context allocated by damon_stat_build_ctx() is
leaked, and the stale damon_stat_context pointer will be overwritten on
the next enable attempt, making the old allocation permanently
unreachable. |
