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: x86/MCE/AMD: Fix memory leak when threshold_create_bank() fails In mce_threshold_create_device(), if threshold_create_bank() fails, the previously allocated threshold banks array @bp will be leaked because the call to mce_threshold_remove_device() will not free it. This happens because mce_threshold_remove_device() fetches the pointer through the threshold_banks per-CPU variable but bp is written there only after the bank creation is successful, and not before, when threshold_create_bank() fails. Add a helper which unwinds all the bank creation work previously done and pass into it the previously allocated threshold banks array for freeing. [ bp: Massage. ]
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dmaengine: imx-sdma: Fix a possible memory leak in sdma_transfer_init If the function sdma_load_context() fails, the sdma_desc will be freed, but the allocated desc->bd is forgot to be freed. We already met the sdma_load_context() failure case and the log as below: [ 450.699064] imx-sdma 30bd0000.dma-controller: Timeout waiting for CH0 ready ... In this case, the desc->bd will not be freed without this change.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: perf/x86/amd/uncore: Fix memory leak for events array When a CPU comes online, the per-CPU NB and LLC uncore contexts are freed but not the events array within the context structure. This causes a memory leak as identified by the kmemleak detector.

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: 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, memory leak would occur.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/rxe: Fix mr leak in RESPST_ERR_RNR rxe_recheck_mr() will increase mr's ref_cnt, so we should call rxe_put(mr) to drop mr's ref_cnt in RESPST_ERR_RNR to avoid below warning: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 4156 at drivers/infiniband/sw/rxe/rxe_pool.c:259 __rxe_cleanup+0x1df/0x240 [rdma_rxe] ...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Call dc_stream_release for remove link enc assignment [Why] A porting error resulted in the stream assignment for the link being retained without being released - a memory leak. [How] Fix the porting error by adding back the dc_stream_release() intended as part of the original patch.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cxl/region: Fix cxl_region leak, cleanup targets at region delete When a region is deleted any targets that have been previously assigned to that region hold references to it. Trigger those references to drop by detaching all targets at unregister_region() time. Otherwise that region object will leak as userspace has lost the ability to detach targets once region sysfs is torn down.
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: 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: usbnet: fix memory leak in error case usbnet_write_cmd_async() mixed up which buffers need to be freed in which error case. v2: add Fixes tag v3: fix uninitialized buf pointer
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sunrpc: fix potential memory leaks in rpc_sysfs_xprt_state_change() The issue happens on some error handling paths. When the function fails to grab the object `xprt`, it simply returns 0, forgetting to decrease the reference count of another object `xps`, which is increased by rpc_sysfs_xprt_kobj_get_xprt_switch(), causing refcount leaks. Also, the function forgets to check whether `xps` is valid before using it, which may result in NULL-dereferencing issues. Fix it by adding proper error handling code when either `xprt` or `xps` is NULL.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: wwan: iosm: fix memory leak in ipc_wwan_dellink IOSM driver registers network device without setting the needs_free_netdev flag, and does NOT call free_netdev() when unregisters network device, which causes a memory leak. This patch sets needs_free_netdev to true when registers network device, which makes netdev subsystem call free_netdev() automatically after unregister_netdevice().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: memstick/ms_block: Fix a memory leak 'erased_blocks_bitmap' is never freed. As it is allocated at the same time as 'used_blocks_bitmap', it is likely that it should be freed also at the same time. Add the corresponding bitmap_free() in msb_data_clear().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: capabilities: fix potential memleak on error path from vfs_getxattr_alloc() In cap_inode_getsecurity(), we will use vfs_getxattr_alloc() to complete the memory allocation of tmpbuf, if we have completed the memory allocation of tmpbuf, but failed to call handler->get(...), there will be a memleak in below logic: |-- ret = (int)vfs_getxattr_alloc(mnt_userns, ...) | /* ^^^ alloc for tmpbuf */ |-- value = krealloc(*xattr_value, error + 1, flags) | /* ^^^ alloc memory */ |-- error = handler->get(handler, ...) | /* error! */ |-- *xattr_value = value | /* xattr_value is &tmpbuf (memory leak!) */ So we will try to free(tmpbuf) after vfs_getxattr_alloc() fails to fix it. [PM: subject line and backtrace tweaks]
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hugetlbfs: don't delete error page from pagecache This change is very similar to the change that was made for shmem [1], and it solves the same problem but for HugeTLBFS instead. Currently, when poison is found in a HugeTLB page, the page is removed from the page cache. That means that attempting to map or read that hugepage in the future will result in a new hugepage being allocated instead of notifying the user that the page was poisoned. As [1] states, this is effectively memory corruption. The fix is to leave the page in the page cache. If the user attempts to use a poisoned HugeTLB page with a syscall, the syscall will fail with EIO, the same error code that shmem uses. For attempts to map the page, the thread will get a BUS_MCEERR_AR SIGBUS. [1]: commit a76054266661 ("mm: shmem: don't truncate page if memory failure happens")
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 "Please allocate more memory", not as "Please free any unnecessary memory" (which was the intended outcome). It's confusing to use xas_nomem() to free memory in this context, so call xas_destroy() instead.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ima: Fix potential memory leak in ima_init_crypto() On failure to allocate the SHA1 tfm, IMA fails to initialize and exits without freeing the ima_algo_array. Add the missing kfree() for ima_algo_array to avoid the potential memory leak.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rtw89: ser: fix CAM leaks occurring in L2 reset The CAM, meaning address CAM and bssid CAM here, will get leaks during SER (system error recover) L2 reset process and ieee80211_restart_hw() which is called by L2 reset process eventually. The normal flow would be like -> add interface (acquire 1) -> enter ips (release 1) -> leave ips (acquire 1) -> connection (occupy 1) <(A) 1 leak after L2 reset if non-sec connection> The ieee80211_restart_hw() flow (under connection) -> ieee80211 reconfig -> add interface (acquire 1) -> leave ips (acquire 1) -> connection (occupy (A) + 2) <(B) 1 more leak> Originally, CAM is released before HW restart only if connection is under security. Now, release CAM whatever connection it is to fix leak in (A). OTOH, check if CAM is already valid to avoid acquiring multiple times to fix (B). Besides, if AP mode, release address CAM of all stations before HW restart.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: crypto: qat - fix memory leak in RSA When an RSA key represented in form 2 (as defined in PKCS #1 V2.1) is used, some components of the private key persist even after the TFM is released. Replace the explicit calls to free the buffers in qat_rsa_exit_tfm() with a call to qat_rsa_clear_ctx() which frees all buffers referenced in the TFM context.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm: msm: fix possible memory leak in mdp5_crtc_cursor_set() drm_gem_object_lookup will call drm_gem_object_get inside. So cursor_bo needs to be put when msm_gem_get_and_pin_iova fails.
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 is leaked. Using compaction_unregister_node to fix this issue.
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 this by calling ext4_fc_free() instead of kfree() directly. Reproducer: mkfs.ext4 -F /dev/vdc tune2fs /dev/vdc -E mount_opts=usrjquota=file echo clear > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak mount /dev/vdc /vdc echo scan > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak sleep 5 echo scan > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak cat /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ibmvnic: Free rwi on reset success Free the rwi structure in the event that the last rwi in the list processed successfully. The logic in commit 4f408e1fa6e1 ("ibmvnic: retry reset if there are no other resets") introduces an issue that results in a 32 byte memory leak whenever the last rwi in the list gets processed.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cifs: Fix connections leak when tlink setup failed If the tlink setup failed, lost to put the connections, then the module refcnt leak since the cifsd kthread not exit. Also leak the fscache info, and for next mount with fsc, it will print the follow errors: CIFS: Cache volume key already in use (cifs,127.0.0.1:445,TEST) Let's check the result of tlink setup, and do some cleanup.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf, verifier: Fix memory leak in array reallocation for stack state If an error (NULL) is returned by krealloc(), callers of realloc_array() were setting their allocation pointers to NULL, but on error krealloc() does not touch the original allocation. This would result in a memory resource leak. Instead, free the old allocation on the error handling path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iavf: Fix handling of dummy receive descriptors Fix memory leak caused by not handling dummy receive descriptor properly. iavf_get_rx_buffer now sets the rx_buffer return value for dummy receive descriptors. Without this patch, when the hardware writes a dummy descriptor, iavf would not free the page allocated for the previous receive buffer. This is an unlikely event but can still happen.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mISDN: fix possible memory leak in mISDN_register_device() Afer commit 1fa5ae857bb1 ("driver core: get rid of struct device's bus_id string array"), the name of device is allocated dynamically, add put_device() to give up the reference, so that the name can be freed in kobject_cleanup() when the refcount is 0. Set device class before put_device() to avoid null release() function WARN message in device_release().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: i2c: piix4: Fix a memory leak in the EFCH MMIO support The recently added support for EFCH MMIO regions introduced a memory leak in that code path. The leak is caused by the fact that release_resource() merely removes the resource from the tree but does not free its memory. We need to call release_mem_region() instead, which does free the memory. As a nice side effect, this brings back some symmetry between the legacy and MMIO paths.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: dwc2: Fix memory leak in dwc2_hcd_init usb_create_hcd will alloc memory for hcd, and we should call usb_put_hcd to free it when platform_get_resource() fails to prevent memory leak. goto error2 label instead error1 to fix this.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rtw88: fix memory overrun and memory leak during hw_scan Previously we allocated less memory than actual required, overwrite to the buffer causes the mm module to complaint and raise access violation faults. Along with potential memory leaks when returned early. Fix these by passing the correct size and proper deinit flow.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: virtio_net: fix memory leak inside XPD_TX with mergeable When we call xdp_convert_buff_to_frame() to get xdpf, if it returns NULL, we should check if xdp_page was allocated by xdp_linearize_page(). If it is newly allocated, it should be freed here alone. Just like any other "goto err_xdp".
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/cm: Fix memory leak in ib_cm_insert_listen cm_alloc_id_priv() allocates resource for the cm_id_priv. When cm_init_listen() fails it doesn't free it, leading to memory leak. Add the missing error unwind.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: fix inode list leak during backref walking at find_parent_nodes() During backref walking, at find_parent_nodes(), if we are dealing with a data extent and we get an error while resolving the indirect backrefs, at resolve_indirect_refs(), or in the while loop that iterates over the refs in the direct refs rbtree, we end up leaking the inode lists attached to the direct refs we have in the direct refs rbtree that were not yet added to the refs ulist passed as argument to find_parent_nodes(). Since they were not yet added to the refs ulist and prelim_release() does not free the lists, on error the caller can only free the lists attached to the refs that were added to the refs ulist, all the remaining refs get their inode lists never freed, therefore leaking their memory. Fix this by having prelim_release() always free any attached inode list to each ref found in the rbtree, and have find_parent_nodes() set the ref's inode list to NULL once it transfers ownership of the inode list to a ref added to the refs ulist passed to find_parent_nodes().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/damon/reclaim: fix potential memory leak in damon_reclaim_init() damon_reclaim_init() allocates a memory chunk for ctx with damon_new_ctx(). When damon_select_ops() fails, ctx is not released, which will lead to a memory leak. We should release the ctx with damon_destroy_ctx() when damon_select_ops() fails to fix the memory leak.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfc: nfcmrvl: Fix memory leak in nfcmrvl_play_deferred Similar to the handling of play_deferred in commit 19cfe912c37b ("Bluetooth: btusb: Fix memory leak in play_deferred"), we thought a patch might be needed here as well. Currently usb_submit_urb is called directly to submit deferred tx urbs after unanchor them. So the usb_giveback_urb_bh would failed to unref it in usb_unanchor_urb and cause memory leak. Put those urbs in tx_anchor to avoid the leak, and also fix the error handling.
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. Note that as an address can be seen in the first word, the watch would appear to have gone through call_rcu(). BUG: memory leak unreferenced object 0xffff88810ce4a200 (size 96): comm "syz-executor352", pid 3605, jiffies 4294947473 (age 13.720s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): e0 82 48 0d 81 88 ff ff 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ..H............. 80 a2 e4 0c 81 88 ff ff 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ backtrace: [<ffffffff8214e6cc>] kmalloc include/linux/slab.h:581 [inline] [<ffffffff8214e6cc>] kzalloc include/linux/slab.h:714 [inline] [<ffffffff8214e6cc>] keyctl_watch_key+0xec/0x2e0 security/keys/keyctl.c:1800 [<ffffffff8214ec84>] __do_sys_keyctl+0x3c4/0x490 security/keys/keyctl.c:2016 [<ffffffff84493a25>] do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline] [<ffffffff84493a25>] do_syscall_64+0x35/0xb0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80 [<ffffffff84600068>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: macvlan: fix memory leaks of macvlan_common_newlink kmemleak reports memory leaks in macvlan_common_newlink, as follows: ip link add link eth0 name .. type macvlan mode source macaddr add <MAC-ADDR> kmemleak reports: unreferenced object 0xffff8880109bb140 (size 64): comm "ip", pid 284, jiffies 4294986150 (age 430.108s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 b8 aa 5a 12 80 88 ff ff ..........Z..... 80 1b fa 0d 80 88 ff ff 1e ff ac af c7 c1 6b 6b ..............kk backtrace: [<ffffffff813e06a7>] kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0x1c7/0x300 [<ffffffff81b66025>] macvlan_hash_add_source+0x45/0xc0 [<ffffffff81b66a67>] macvlan_changelink_sources+0xd7/0x170 [<ffffffff81b6775c>] macvlan_common_newlink+0x38c/0x5a0 [<ffffffff81b6797e>] macvlan_newlink+0xe/0x20 [<ffffffff81d97f8f>] __rtnl_newlink+0x7af/0xa50 [<ffffffff81d98278>] rtnl_newlink+0x48/0x70 ... In the scenario where the macvlan mode is configured as 'source', macvlan_changelink_sources() will be execured to reconfigure list of remote source mac addresses, at the same time, if register_netdevice() return an error, the resource generated by macvlan_changelink_sources() is not cleaned up. Using this patch, in the case of an error, it will execute macvlan_flush_sources() to ensure that the resource is cleaned up.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: fix possible memory leak in btrfs_get_dev_args_from_path() In btrfs_get_dev_args_from_path(), btrfs_get_bdev_and_sb() can fail if the path is invalid. In this case, btrfs_get_dev_args_from_path() returns directly without freeing args->uuid and args->fsid allocated before, which causes memory leak. To fix these possible leaks, when btrfs_get_bdev_and_sb() fails, btrfs_put_dev_args_from_path() is called to clean up the memory.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: firmware_loader: Fix memory leak in firmware upload In the case of firmware-upload, an instance of struct fw_upload is allocated in firmware_upload_register(). This data needs to be freed in fw_dev_release(). Create a new fw_upload_free() function in sysfs_upload.c to handle the firmware-upload specific memory frees and incorporate the missing kfree call for the fw_upload structure.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: pvrusb2: fix memory leak in pvr_probe The error handling code in pvr2_hdw_create forgets to unregister the v4l2 device. When pvr2_hdw_create returns back to pvr2_context_create, it calls pvr2_context_destroy to destroy context, but mp->hdw is NULL, which leads to that pvr2_hdw_destroy directly returns. Fix this by adding v4l2_device_unregister to decrease the refcount of usb interface.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: kunit: executor: Fix a memory leak on failure in kunit_filter_tests It's possible that memory allocation for 'filtered' will fail, but for the copy of the suite to succeed. In this case, the copy could be leaked. Properly free 'copy' in the error case for the allocation of 'filtered' failing. Note that there may also have been a similar issue in kunit_filter_subsuites, before it was removed in "kunit: flatten kunit_suite*** to kunit_suite** in .kunit_test_suites". This was reported by clang-analyzer via the kernel test robot, here: https://lore.kernel.org/all/c8073b8e-7b9e-0830-4177-87c12f16349c@intel.com/ And by smatch via Dan Carpenter and the kernel test robot: https://lore.kernel.org/all/202207101328.ASjx88yj-lkp@intel.com/
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: EDAC/highbank: Fix memory leak in highbank_mc_probe() When devres_open_group() fails, it returns -ENOMEM without freeing memory allocated by edac_mc_alloc(). Call edac_mc_free() on the error handling path to avoid a memory leak. [ bp: Massage commit message. ]
