memory leaks by removing necessary vcap_free_rule(), add it to fix it.

The issue occurs in start_dl_timer(), which increments the task_struct
reference count and sets a timer. The timer callback, dl_task_timer,
is supposed to decrement the reference count upon expiration. However,
if enqueue_task_dl() is called before the timer expires and cancels it,
the reference count is not decremented, leading to the leak.
This patch fixes the reference leak by ensuring the task_struct
reference count is properly decremented when the timer is canceled. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: qat - Fix ADF_DEV_RESET_SYNC memory leak
Using completion_done to determine whether the caller has gone
away only works after a complete call. Furthermore it's still
possible that the caller has not yet called wait_for_completion,
resulting in another potential UAF.
Fix this by making the caller use cancel_work_sync and then freeing
the memory safely. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: fix a possible memleak in tipc_buf_append
__skb_linearize() doesn't free the skb when it fails, so move
'*buf = NULL' after __skb_linearize(), so that the skb can be
freed on the err path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: Fix a memory leak in nf_tables_updchain
If nft_netdev_register_hooks() fails, the memory associated with
nft_stats is not freed, causing a memory leak.
This patch fixes it by moving nft_stats_alloc() down after
nft_netdev_register_hooks() succeeds. |

Bluetooth: msft: Fix memory leak
Fix leaking buffer allocated to send MSFT_OP_LE_MONITOR_ADVERTISEMENT. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/handshake: Fix handshake_req_destroy_test1
Recently, handshake_req_destroy_test1 started failing:
Expected handshake_req_destroy_test == req, but
handshake_req_destroy_test == 0000000000000000
req == 0000000060f99b40
not ok 11 req_destroy works
This is because "sock_release(sock)" was replaced with "fput(filp)"
to address a memory leak. Note that sock_release() is synchronous
but fput() usually delays the final close and clean-up.
The delay is not consequential in the other cases that were changed
but handshake_req_destroy_test1 is testing that handshake_req_cancel()
followed by closing the file actually does call the ->hp_destroy
method. Thus the PTR_EQ test at the end has to be sure that the
final close is complete before it checks the pointer.
We cannot use a completion here because if ->hp_destroy is never
called (ie, there is an API bug) then the test will hang.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: fix memleak when more than 255 elements expired
When more than 255 elements expired we're supposed to switch to a new gc
container structure.
This never happens: u8 type will wrap before reaching the boundary
and nft_trans_gc_space() always returns true.
This means we recycle the initial gc container structure and
lose track of the elements that came before.
While at it, don't deref 'gc' after we've passed it to call_rcu. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/slab_common: fix slab_caches list corruption after kmem_cache_destroy()
After the commit in Fixes:, if a module that created a slab cache does not
release all of its allocated objects before destroying the cache (at rmmod
time), we might end up releasing the kmem_cache object without removing it
from the slab_caches list thus corrupting the list as kmem_cache_destroy()
ignores the return value from shutdown_cache(), which in turn never removes
the kmem_cache object from slabs_list in case __kmem_cache_shutdown() fails
to release all of the cache's slabs.
This is easily observable on a kernel built with CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST=y
as after that ill release the system will immediately trip on list_add,
or list_del, assertions similar to the one shown below as soon as another
kmem_cache gets created, or destroyed:
[ 1041.213632] list_del corruption. next->prev should be ffff89f596fb5768, but was 52f1e5016aeee75d. (next=ffff89f595a1b268)

tracing/histogram: Fix a potential memory leak for kstrdup()
kfree() is missing on an error path to free the memory allocated by

iommu/vt-d: Fix potential memory leak in intel_setup_irq_remapping()
After commit e3beca48a45b ("irqdomain/treewide: Keep firmware node
unconditionally allocated"). For tear down scenario, fn is only freed
after fail to allocate ir_domain, though it also should be freed in case
dmar_enable_qi returns error.
Besides free fn, irq_domain and ir_msi_domain need to be removed as well
if intel_setup_irq_remapping fails to enable queued invalidation.
Improve the rewinding path by add out_free_ir_domain and out_free_fwnode
lables per Baolu's suggestion. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: fix memory leak in fib6_rule_suppress
The kernel leaks memory when a `fib` rule is present in IPv6 nftables
firewall rules and a suppress_prefix rule is present in the IPv6 routing
rules (used by certain tools such as wg-quick). In such scenarios, every
incoming packet will leak an allocation in `ip6_dst_cache` slab cache.
After some hours of `bpftrace`-ing and source code reading, I tracked
down the issue to ca7a03c41753 ("ipv6: do not free rt if
FIB_LOOKUP_NOREF is set on suppress rule").
The problem with that change is that the generic `args->flags` always have
`FIB_LOOKUP_NOREF` set[1][2] but the IPv6-specific flag
`RT6_LOOKUP_F_DST_NOREF` might not be, leading to `fib6_rule_suppress` not
decreasing the refcount when needed.
How to reproduce:
- Add the following nftables rule to a prerouting chain:
meta nfproto ipv6 fib saddr . mark . iif oif missing drop
This can be done with:
sudo nft create table inet test
sudo nft create chain inet test test_chain '{ type filter hook prerouting priority filter + 10; policy accept; }'
sudo nft add rule inet test test_chain meta nfproto ipv6 fib saddr . mark . iif oif missing drop
- Run:
sudo ip -6 rule add table main suppress_prefixlength 0
- Watch `sudo slabtop -o | grep ip6_dst_cache` to see memory usage increase
with every incoming ipv6 packet.
This patch exposes the protocol-specific flags to the protocol
specific `suppress` function, and check the protocol-specific `flags`
argument for RT6_LOOKUP_F_DST_NOREF instead of the generic
FIB_LOOKUP_NOREF when decreasing the refcount, like this.

hugetlb, userfaultfd: fix reservation restore on userfaultfd error
Currently in the is_continue case in hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte(), if we
bail out using "goto out_release_unlock;" in the cases where idx >=
size, or !huge_pte_none(), the code will detect that new_pagecache_page
== false, and so call restore_reserve_on_error(). In this case I see
restore_reserve_on_error() delete the reservation, and the following
call to remove_inode_hugepages() will increment h->resv_hugepages
causing a 100% reproducible leak.
We should treat the is_continue case similar to adding a page into the
pagecache and set new_pagecache_page to true, to indicate that there is
no reservation to restore on the error path, and we need not call
restore_reserve_on_error(). Rename new_pagecache_page to
page_in_pagecache to make that clear. |

As reported by syzbot [1], there is a memory leak while closing the

("vsock/virtio: free packets during the socket release"), but we
forgot to drain the RX queue when the socket is definitely closed by
the scheduled work.
To avoid future issues, let's use the new virtio_transport_remove_sock()
to drain the RX queue before removing the socket from the af_vsock lists
calling vsock_remove_sock().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
udmabuf: fix memory leak on last export_udmabuf() error path
In export_udmabuf(), if dma_buf_fd() fails because the FD table is full, a
dma_buf owning the udmabuf has already been created; but the error handling
in udmabuf_create() will tear down the udmabuf without doing anything about
the containing dma_buf.
This leaves a dma_buf in memory that contains a dangling pointer; though
that doesn't seem to lead to anything bad except a memory leak.
Fix it by moving the dma_buf_fd() call out of export_udmabuf() so that we
can give it different error handling.
Note that the shape of this code changed a lot in commit 5e72b2b41a21
("udmabuf: convert udmabuf driver to use folios"); but the memory leak
seems to have existed since the introduction of udmabuf. |
