In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: hyperv: fix possible memory leak in mousevsc_probe() If hid_add_device() returns error, it should call hid_destroy_device() to free hid_dev which is allocated in hid_allocate_device().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: dsa: Fix possible memory leaks in dsa_loop_init() kmemleak reported memory leaks in dsa_loop_init(): kmemleak: 12 new suspected memory leaks unreferenced object 0xffff8880138ce000 (size 2048): comm "modprobe", pid 390, jiffies 4295040478 (age 238.976s) backtrace: [<000000006a94f1d5>] kmalloc_trace+0x26/0x60 [<00000000a9c44622>] phy_device_create+0x5d/0x970 [<00000000d0ee2afc>] get_phy_device+0xf3/0x2b0 [<00000000dca0c71f>] __fixed_phy_register.part.0+0x92/0x4e0 [<000000008a834798>] fixed_phy_register+0x84/0xb0 [<0000000055223fcb>] dsa_loop_init+0xa9/0x116 [dsa_loop] ... There are two reasons for memleak in dsa_loop_init(). First, fixed_phy_register() create and register phy_device: fixed_phy_register() get_phy_device() phy_device_create() # freed by phy_device_free() phy_device_register() # freed by phy_device_remove() But fixed_phy_unregister() only calls phy_device_remove(). So the memory allocated in phy_device_create() is leaked. Second, when mdio_driver_register() fail in dsa_loop_init(), it just returns and there is no cleanup for phydevs. Fix the problems by catching the error of mdio_driver_register() in dsa_loop_init(), then calling both fixed_phy_unregister() and phy_device_free() to release phydevs. Also add a function for phydevs cleanup to avoid duplacate.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: lpfc: Fix resource leak in lpfc_sli4_send_seq_to_ulp() If no handler is found in lpfc_complete_unsol_iocb() to match the rctl of a received frame, the frame is dropped and resources are leaked. Fix by returning resources when discarding an unhandled frame type. Update lpfc_fc_frame_check() handling of NOP basic link service.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dpaa2-eth: retrieve the virtual address before dma_unmap The TSO header was DMA unmapped before the virtual address was retrieved and then used to free the buffer. This meant that we were actually removing the DMA map and then trying to search for it to help in retrieving the virtual address. This lead to a invalid virtual address being used in the kfree call. Fix this by calling dpaa2_iova_to_virt() prior to the dma_unmap call. [ 487.231819] Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address fffffd9807000008 (...)

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: bridge: switchdev: Fix memory leaks when changing VLAN protocol The bridge driver can offload VLANs to the underlying hardware either via switchdev or the 8021q driver. When the former is used, the VLAN is marked in the bridge driver with the 'BR_VLFLAG_ADDED_BY_SWITCHDEV' private flag. To avoid the memory leaks mentioned in the cited commit, the bridge driver will try to delete a VLAN via the 8021q driver if the VLAN is not marked with the previously mentioned flag. When the VLAN protocol of the bridge changes, switchdev drivers are notified via the 'SWITCHDEV_ATTR_ID_BRIDGE_VLAN_PROTOCOL' attribute, but the 8021q driver is also called to add the existing VLANs with the new protocol and delete them with the old protocol. In case the VLANs were offloaded via switchdev, the above behavior is both redundant and buggy. Redundant because the VLANs are already programmed in hardware and drivers that support VLAN protocol change (currently only mlx5) change the protocol upon the switchdev attribute notification. Buggy because the 8021q driver is called despite these VLANs being marked with 'BR_VLFLAG_ADDED_BY_SWITCHDEV'. This leads to memory leaks [1] when the VLANs are deleted. Fix by not calling the 8021q driver for VLANs that were already programmed via switchdev.

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: ath11k: fix missing skb drop on htc_tx_completion error On htc_tx_completion error the skb is not dropped. This is wrong since the completion_handler logic expect the skb to be consumed anyway even when an error is triggered. Not freeing the skb on error is a memory leak since the skb won't be freed anywere else. Correctly free the packet on eid >= ATH11K_HTC_EP_COUNT before returning.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: io_uring: fix multishot accept request leaks Having REQ_F_POLLED set doesn't guarantee that the request is executed as a multishot from the polling path. Fortunately for us, if the code thinks it's multishot issue when it's not, it can only ask to skip completion so leaking the request. Use issue_flags to mark multipoll issues.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: hda: fix potential memleak in 'add_widget_node' As 'kobject_add' may allocated memory for 'kobject->name' when return error. And in this function, if call 'kobject_add' failed didn't free kobject. So call 'kobject_put' to recycling resources.
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: scsi: lpfc: Fix possible memory leak when failing to issue CMF WQE There is no corresponding free routine if lpfc_sli4_issue_wqe fails to issue the CMF WQE in lpfc_issue_cmf_sync_wqe. If ret_val is non-zero, then free the iocbq request structure.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: target: tcm_loop: Fix possible name leak in tcm_loop_setup_hba_bus() If device_register() fails in tcm_loop_setup_hba_bus(), the name allocated by dev_set_name() need be freed. As comment of device_register() says, it should use put_device() to give up the reference in the error path. So fix this by calling put_device(), then the name can be freed in kobject_cleanup(). The 'tl_hba' will be freed in tcm_loop_release_adapter(), so it don't need goto error label in this case.
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: -------------------------------------------- unreferenced object 0xffff88812b889c40 (size 64): comm "mount", pid 692, jiffies 4294838325 (age 34.288s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 40 48 b5 14 81 88 ff ff 01 e0 31 00 00 00 50 00 @H........1...P. 00 00 01 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 02 00 00 00 09 08 ................ backtrace: [<ffffffffae93a3a3>] __kmalloc+0x613/0x910 [<ffffffffaf423b9c>] jffs2_sum_add_dirent_mem+0x5c/0xa0 [<ffffffffb0f3afa8>] jffs2_scan_medium.cold+0x36e5/0x4794 [<ffffffffb0f3dbe1>] jffs2_do_mount_fs.cold+0xa7/0x2267 [<ffffffffaf40acf3>] jffs2_do_fill_super+0x383/0xc30 [<ffffffffaf40c00a>] jffs2_fill_super+0x2ea/0x4c0 [<ffffffffb0315d64>] mtd_get_sb+0x254/0x400 [<ffffffffb0315f5f>] mtd_get_sb_by_nr+0x4f/0xd0 [<ffffffffb0316478>] get_tree_mtd+0x498/0x840 [<ffffffffaf40bd15>] jffs2_get_tree+0x25/0x30 [<ffffffffae9f358d>] vfs_get_tree+0x8d/0x2e0 [<ffffffffaea7a98f>] path_mount+0x50f/0x1e50 [<ffffffffaea7c3d7>] do_mount+0x107/0x130 [<ffffffffaea7c5c5>] __se_sys_mount+0x1c5/0x2f0 [<ffffffffaea7c917>] __x64_sys_mount+0xc7/0x160 [<ffffffffb10142f5>] do_syscall_64+0x45/0x70 unreferenced object 0xffff888114b54840 (size 32): comm "mount", pid 692, jiffies 4294838325 (age 34.288s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): c0 75 b5 14 81 88 ff ff 02 e0 02 00 00 00 02 00 .u.............. 00 00 84 00 00 00 44 00 00 00 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b a5 ......D...kkkkk. backtrace: [<ffffffffae93be24>] kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0x584/0x880 [<ffffffffaf423b04>] jffs2_sum_add_inode_mem+0x54/0x90 [<ffffffffb0f3bd44>] jffs2_scan_medium.cold+0x4481/0x4794 [...] unreferenced object 0xffff888114b57280 (size 32): comm "mount", pid 692, jiffies 4294838393 (age 34.357s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 10 d5 6c 11 81 88 ff ff 08 e0 05 00 00 00 01 00 ..l............. 00 00 38 02 00 00 28 00 00 00 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b a5 ..8...(...kkkkk. backtrace: [<ffffffffae93be24>] kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0x584/0x880 [<ffffffffaf423c34>] jffs2_sum_add_xattr_mem+0x54/0x90 [<ffffffffb0f3a24f>] jffs2_scan_medium.cold+0x298c/0x4794 [...] unreferenced object 0xffff8881116cd510 (size 16): comm "mount", pid 692, jiffies 4294838395 (age 34.355s) hex dump (first 16 bytes): 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 09 e0 60 02 00 00 6b a5 ..........`...k. backtrace: [<ffffffffae93be24>] kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0x584/0x880 [<ffffffffaf423cc4>] jffs2_sum_add_xref_mem+0x54/0x90 [<ffffffffb0f3b2e3>] jffs2_scan_medium.cold+0x3a20/0x4794 [...] -------------------------------------------- Therefore, we should call jffs2_sum_reset_collected(s) on exit to release the memory added in s.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: fix inode list leak during backref walking at resolve_indirect_refs() During backref walking, at resolve_indirect_refs(), if we get an error we jump to the 'out' label and call ulist_free() on the 'parents' ulist, which frees all the elements in the ulist - however that does not free any inode lists that may be attached to elements, through the 'aux' field of a ulist node, so we end up leaking lists if we have any attached to the unodes. Fix this by calling free_leaf_list() instead of ulist_free() when we exit from resolve_indirect_refs(). The static function free_leaf_list() is moved up for this to be possible and it's slightly simplified by removing unnecessary code.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: fix anon_dev leak in create_subvol() When btrfs_qgroup_inherit(), btrfs_alloc_tree_block, or btrfs_insert_root() fail in create_subvol(), we return without freeing anon_dev. Reorganize the error handling in create_subvol() to fix this.
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: 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: 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: 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 small mempool leak in SMB2_negotiate() In some cases of failure (dialect mismatches) in SMB2_negotiate(), after the request is sent, the checks would return -EIO when they should be rather setting rc = -EIO and jumping to neg_exit to free the response buffer from mempool.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iio: trigger: sysfs: fix possible memory leak in iio_sysfs_trig_init() dev_set_name() allocates memory for name, it need be freed when device_add() fails, call put_device() to give up the reference that hold in device_initialize(), so that it can be freed in kobject_cleanup() when the refcount hit to 0. Fault injection test can trigger this: unreferenced object 0xffff8e8340a7b4c0 (size 32): comm "modprobe", pid 243, jiffies 4294678145 (age 48.845s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 69 69 6f 5f 73 79 73 66 73 5f 74 72 69 67 67 65 iio_sysfs_trigge 72 00 a7 40 83 8e ff ff 00 86 13 c4 f6 ee ff ff r..@............ backtrace: [<0000000074999de8>] __kmem_cache_alloc_node+0x1e9/0x360 [<00000000497fd30b>] __kmalloc_node_track_caller+0x44/0x1a0 [<000000003636c520>] kstrdup+0x2d/0x60 [<0000000032f84da2>] kobject_set_name_vargs+0x1e/0x90 [<0000000092efe493>] dev_set_name+0x4e/0x70
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: mt76: mt7915: fix possible memory leak in mt7915_mcu_add_sta Free allocated skb in mt7915_mcu_add_sta routine in case of failures.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iio: adc: at91_adc: fix possible memory leak in at91_adc_allocate_trigger() If iio_trigger_register() returns error, it should call iio_trigger_free() to give up the reference that hold in iio_trigger_alloc(), so that it can call iio_trig_release() to free memory when the refcount hit to 0.
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: platform/x86: thinkpad_acpi: Fix a memory leak of EFCH MMIO resource Unlike release_mem_region(), a call to release_resource() does not free the resource, so it has to be freed explicitly to avoid a memory leak.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mmc: sdhci-pci: Fix possible memory leak caused by missing pci_dev_put() pci_get_device() will increase the reference count for the returned pci_dev. We need to use pci_dev_put() to decrease the reference count before amd_probe() returns. There is no problem for the 'smbus_dev == NULL' branch because pci_dev_put() can also handle the NULL input parameter case.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: block: Fix possible memory leak for rq_wb on add_disk failure kmemleak reported memory leaks in device_add_disk(): kmemleak: 3 new suspected memory leaks unreferenced object 0xffff88800f420800 (size 512): comm "modprobe", pid 4275, jiffies 4295639067 (age 223.512s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 04 00 00 00 08 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 00 e1 f5 05 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ backtrace: [<00000000d3662699>] kmalloc_trace+0x26/0x60 [<00000000edc7aadc>] wbt_init+0x50/0x6f0 [<0000000069601d16>] wbt_enable_default+0x157/0x1c0 [<0000000028fc393f>] blk_register_queue+0x2a4/0x420 [<000000007345a042>] device_add_disk+0x6fd/0xe40 [<0000000060e6aab0>] nbd_dev_add+0x828/0xbf0 [nbd] ... It is because the memory allocated in wbt_enable_default() is not released in device_add_disk() error path. Normally, these memory are freed in: del_gendisk() rq_qos_exit() rqos->ops->exit(rqos); wbt_exit() So rq_qos_exit() is called to free the rq_wb memory for wbt_init(). However in the error path of device_add_disk(), only blk_unregister_queue() is called and make rq_wb memory leaked. Add rq_qos_exit() to the error path to fix it.
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: net/x25: Fix skb leak in x25_lapb_receive_frame() x25_lapb_receive_frame() using skb_copy() to get a private copy of skb, the new skb should be freed in the undersized/fragmented skb error handling path. Otherwise there is a memory leak.
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 properly released as there is no action will be performed by r8712_usb_dvobj_deinit(). To properly release it, we should call r8712_free_io_queue() in r8712_usb_dvobj_deinit(). Besides, in r871xu_dev_remove(), r8712_usb_dvobj_deinit() will be called by r871x_dev_unload() under condition `padapter->bup` and r8712_free_io_queue() is called by r8712_free_drv_sw(). However, r8712_usb_dvobj_deinit() does not rely on `padapter->bup` and calling r8712_free_io_queue() in r8712_free_drv_sw() is negative for better understading the code. So I move r8712_usb_dvobj_deinit() into r871xu_dev_remove(), and remove r8712_free_io_queue() from r8712_free_drv_sw().
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 papr_scm_remove() and papr_scm_pmu_register(), papr_scm_pmu_check_events() error paths. Also individual 'stat_id' arent NULL terminated 'char *' instead they are fixed 8-byte sized identifiers. However papr_scm_pmu_register() assumes it to be a NULL terminated 'char *' and at other places it assumes it to be a 'papr_scm_perf_stat.stat_id' sized string which is 8-byes in size. Fix this by allocating the memory for papr_scm_priv.nvdimm_events_map to also include space for 'stat_id' entries. This is possible since number of available events/stat_ids are known upfront. This saves some memory and one extra level of indirection from 'nvdimm_events_map' to 'stat_id'. Also rest of the code can continue to call 'kfree(papr_scm_priv.nvdimm_events_map)' without needing to iterate over the array and free up individual elements.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cifs: Fix memory leak when using fscache If we hit the 'index == next_cached' case, we leak a refcount on the struct page. Fix this by using readahead_folio() which takes care of the refcount for you.
