In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ubifs: Free memory for tmpfile name When opening a ubifs tmpfile on an encrypted directory, function fscrypt_setup_filename allocates memory for the name that is to be stored in the directory entry, but after the name has been copied to the directory entry inode, the memory is not freed. When running kmemleak on it we see that it is registered as a leak. The report below is triggered by a simple program 'tmpfile' just opening a tmpfile: unreferenced object 0xffff88810178f380 (size 32): comm "tmpfile", pid 509, jiffies 4294934744 (age 1524.742s) backtrace: __kmem_cache_alloc_node __kmalloc fscrypt_setup_filename ubifs_tmpfile vfs_tmpfile path_openat Free this memory after it has been copied to the inode.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: mpi3mr: Fix throttle_groups memory leak Add a missing kfree().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: misc: vmw_balloon: fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup() When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it, otherwise the memory will leak over time. To make things simpler, just call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic at once.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gpio: sim: fix a memory leak Fix an inverted logic bug in gpio_sim_remove_hogs() that leads to GPIO hog structures never being freed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: efivarfs: Free s_fs_info on unmount Now that we allocate a s_fs_info struct on fs context creation, we should ensure that we free it again when the superblock goes away.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: core: Remove the /proc/scsi/${proc_name} directory earlier Remove the /proc/scsi/${proc_name} directory earlier to fix a race condition between unloading and reloading kernel modules. This fixes a bug introduced in 2009 by commit 77c019768f06 ("[SCSI] fix /proc memory leak in the SCSI core").

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: dwc2: fix a devres leak in hw_enable upon suspend resume Each time the platform goes to low power, PM suspend / resume routines call: __dwc2_lowlevel_hw_enable -> devm_add_action_or_reset(). This adds a new devres each time. This may also happen at runtime, as dwc2_lowlevel_hw_enable() can be called from udc_start(). This can be seen with tracing: - echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/dev/devres_log/enable - go to low power - cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace A new "ADD" entry is found upon each low power cycle: ... devres_log: 49000000.usb-otg ADD 82a13bba devm_action_release (8 bytes) ... devres_log: 49000000.usb-otg ADD 49889daf devm_action_release (8 bytes) ... A second issue is addressed here: - regulator_bulk_enable() is called upon each PM cycle (suspend/resume). - regulator_bulk_disable() never gets called. So the reference count for these regulators constantly increase, by one upon each low power cycle, due to missing regulator_bulk_disable() call in __dwc2_lowlevel_hw_disable(). The original fix that introduced the devm_add_action_or_reset() call, fixed an issue during probe, that happens due to other errors in dwc2_driver_probe() -> dwc2_core_reset(). Then the probe fails without disabling regulators, when dr_mode == USB_DR_MODE_PERIPHERAL. Rather fix the error path: disable all the low level hardware in the error path, by using the "hsotg->ll_hw_enabled" flag. Checking dr_mode has been introduced to avoid a dual call to dwc2_lowlevel_hw_disable(). "ll_hw_enabled" should achieve the same (and is used currently in the remove() routine).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: io_uring: fix fget leak when fs don't support nowait buffered read Heming reported a BUG when using io_uring doing link-cp on ocfs2. [1] Do the following steps can reproduce this BUG: mount -t ocfs2 /dev/vdc /mnt/ocfs2 cp testfile /mnt/ocfs2/ ./link-cp /mnt/ocfs2/testfile /mnt/ocfs2/testfile.1 umount /mnt/ocfs2 Then umount will fail, and it outputs: umount: /mnt/ocfs2: target is busy. While tracing umount, it blames mnt_get_count() not return as expected. Do a deep investigation for fget()/fput() on related code flow, I've finally found that fget() leaks since ocfs2 doesn't support nowait buffered read. io_issue_sqe |-io_assign_file // do fget() first |-io_read |-io_iter_do_read |-ocfs2_file_read_iter // return -EOPNOTSUPP |-kiocb_done |-io_rw_done |-__io_complete_rw_common // set REQ_F_REISSUE |-io_resubmit_prep |-io_req_prep_async // override req->file, leak happens This was introduced by commit a196c78b5443 in v5.18.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: call op_release, even when op_func returns an error For ops with "trivial" replies, nfsd4_encode_operation will shortcut most of the encoding work and skip to just marshalling up the status. One of the things it skips is calling op_release. This could cause a memory leak in the layoutget codepath if there is an error at an inopportune time. Have the compound processing engine always call op_release, even when op_func sets an error in op->status. With this change, we also need nfsd4_block_get_device_info_scsi to set the gd_device pointer to NULL on error to avoid a double free.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: clk: mediatek: fix of_iomap memory leak Smatch reports: drivers/clk/mediatek/clk-mtk.c:583 mtk_clk_simple_probe() warn: 'base' from of_iomap() not released on lines: 496. This problem was also found in linux-next. In mtk_clk_simple_probe(), base is not released when handling errors if clk_data is not existed, which may cause a leak. So free_base should be added here to release base.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: samples/bpf: Fix fout leak in hbm's run_bpf_prog Fix fout being fopen'ed but then not subsequently fclose'd. In the affected branch, fout is otherwise going out of scope.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: USB: sl811: fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup() When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it, otherwise the memory will leak over time. To make things simpler, just call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic at once.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: time/debug: Fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup() When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it, otherwise the memory will leak over time. To make things simpler, just call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic at once.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/tegra: rgb: Fix missing clk_put() in the error handling paths of tegra_dc_rgb_probe() If clk_get_sys(..., "pll_d2_out0") fails, the clk_get_sys() call must be undone. Add the missing clk_put and a new 'put_pll_d_out0' label in the error handling path, and use it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: mt7915: fix memory leak in mt7915_mcu_exit Always purge mcu skb queues in mt7915_mcu_exit routine even if mt7915_firmware_state fails.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: accel/qaic: Fix slicing memory leak The temporary buffer storing slicing configuration data from user is only freed on error. This is a memory leak. Free the buffer unconditionally.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: USB: gadget: pxa27x_udc: fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup() When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it, otherwise the memory will leak over time. To make things simpler, just call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic at once.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: spi: imx: Don't skip cleanup in remove's error path Returning early in a platform driver's remove callback is wrong. In this case the dma resources are not released in the error path. this is never retried later and so this is a permanent leak. To fix this, only skip hardware disabling if waking the device fails.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nommu: fix memory leak in do_mmap() error path The preallocation of the maple tree nodes may leak if the error path to "error_just_free" is taken. Fix this by moving the freeing of the maple tree nodes to a shared location for all error paths.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mlxsw: minimal: fix potential memory leak in mlxsw_m_linecards_init The line cards array is not freed in the error path of mlxsw_m_linecards_init(), which can lead to a memory leak. Fix by freeing the array in the error path, thereby making the error path identical to mlxsw_m_linecards_fini().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ovl: fix tmpfile leak Missed an error cleanup.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: rtw88: fix device leak on probe failure Driver core holds a reference to the USB interface and its parent USB device while the interface is bound to a driver and there is no need to take additional references unless the structures are needed after disconnect. This driver takes a reference to the USB device during probe but does not to release it on all probe errors (e.g. when descriptor parsing fails). Drop the redundant device reference to fix the leak, reduce cargo culting, make it easier to spot drivers where an extra reference is needed, and reduce the risk of further memory leaks.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rxrpc: Fix key parsing memleak In rxrpc_preparse_xdr_yfs_rxgk(), the memory attached to token->rxgk can be leaked in a few error paths after it's allocated. Fix this by freeing it in the "reject_token:" case.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/damon/core: fix new damon_target objects leaks on damon_commit_targets() Patch series "mm/damon/core: fix memory leaks and ignored inputs from damon_commit_ctx()". Due to two bugs in damon_commit_targets() and damon_commit_schemes(), which are called from damon_commit_ctx(), some user inputs can be ignored, and some mmeory objects can be leaked. Fix those. Note that only DAMON sysfs interface users are affected. Other DAMON core API user modules that more focused more on simple and dedicated production usages, including DAMON_RECLAIM and DAMON_LRU_SORT are not using the buggy function in the way, so not affected. This patch (of 2): When new DAMON targets are added via damon_commit_targets(), the newly created targets are not deallocated when updating the internal data (damon_commit_target()) is failed. Worse yet, even if the setup is successfully done, the new target is not linked to the context. Hence, the new targets are always leaked regardless of the internal data setup failure. Fix the leaks.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: lan966x: fix page pool leak in error paths lan966x_fdma_rx_alloc() creates a page pool but does not destroy it if the subsequent fdma_alloc_coherent() call fails, leaking the pool. Similarly, lan966x_fdma_init() frees the coherent DMA memory when lan966x_fdma_tx_alloc() fails but does not destroy the page pool that was successfully created by lan966x_fdma_rx_alloc(), leaking it. Add the missing page_pool_destroy() calls in both error paths.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: ufs: pltfrm: Dellocate HBA during ufshcd_pltfrm_remove() This will ensure that the scsi host is cleaned up properly using scsi_host_dev_release(). Otherwise, it may lead to memory leaks.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ceph: fix memory leak in ceph_direct_read_write() The bvecs array which is allocated in iter_get_bvecs_alloc() is leaked and pages remain pinned if ceph_alloc_sparse_ext_map() fails. There is no need to delay the allocation of sparse_ext map until after the bvecs array is set up, so fix this by moving sparse_ext allocation a bit earlier. Also, make a similar adjustment in __ceph_sync_read() for consistency (a leak of the same kind in __ceph_sync_read() has been addressed differently).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qedi: Fix a possible memory leak in qedi_alloc_and_init_sb() Hook "qedi_ops->common->sb_init = qed_sb_init" does not release the DMA memory sb_virt when it fails. Add dma_free_coherent() to free it. This is the same way as qedr_alloc_mem_sb() and qede_alloc_mem_sb().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qedf: Fix a possible memory leak in qedf_alloc_and_init_sb() Hook "qed_ops->common->sb_init = qed_sb_init" does not release the DMA memory sb_virt when it fails. Add dma_free_coherent() to free it. This is the same way as qedr_alloc_mem_sb() and qede_alloc_mem_sb().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/damon/sysfs: fix param_ctx leak on damon_sysfs_new_test_ctx() failure Patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: fix memory leak and NULL dereference issues", v4. DAMON_SYSFS can leak memory under allocation failure, and do NULL pointer dereference when a privileged user make wrong sequences of control. Fix those. This patch (of 3): When damon_sysfs_new_test_ctx() fails in damon_sysfs_commit_input(), param_ctx is leaked because the early return skips the cleanup at the out label. Destroy param_ctx before returning.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/vt-d: Fix qi_batch NULL pointer with nested parent domain The qi_batch is allocated when assigning cache tag for a domain. While for nested parent domain, it is missed. Hence, when trying to map pages to the nested parent, NULL dereference occurred. Also, there is potential memleak since there is no lock around domain->qi_batch allocation. To solve it, add a helper for qi_batch allocation, and call it in both the __cache_tag_assign_domain() and __cache_tag_assign_parent_domain().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: erofs: fix memory leak of LZMA global compressed deduplication When stressing microLZMA EROFS images with the new global compressed deduplication feature enabled (`-Ededupe`), I found some short-lived temporary pages weren't properly released, which could slowly cause unexpected OOMs hours later. Let's fix it now (LZ4 and DEFLATE don't have this issue.)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: misc: usbio: Fix URB memory leak on submit failure When usb_submit_urb() fails in usbio_probe(), the previously allocated URB is never freed, causing a memory leak. Fix this by jumping to err_free_urb label to properly release the URB on the error path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: esp: fix skb leak with espintcp and async crypto When the TX queue for espintcp is full, esp_output_tail_tcp will return an error and not free the skb, because with synchronous crypto, the common xfrm output code will drop the packet for us. With async crypto (esp_output_done), we need to drop the skb when esp_output_tail_tcp returns an error.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ice: Fix memory leak in ice_set_ringparam() In ice_set_ringparam, tx_rings and xdp_rings are allocated before rx_rings. If the allocation of rx_rings fails, the code jumps to the done label leaking both tx_rings and xdp_rings. Furthermore, if the setup of an individual Rx ring fails during the loop, the code jumps to the free_tx label which releases tx_rings but leaks xdp_rings. Fix this by introducing a free_xdp label and updating the error paths to ensure both xdp_rings and tx_rings are properly freed if rx_rings allocation or setup fails. Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool and code review.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ionic: Fix netdev notifier unregister on failure If register_netdev() fails, then the driver leaks the netdev notifier. Fix this by calling ionic_lif_unregister() on register_netdev() failure. This will also call ionic_lif_unregister_phc() if it has already been registered.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: apple: avoid memory leak in apple_report_fixup() The apple_report_fixup() function was returning a newly kmemdup()-allocated buffer, but never freeing it. The caller of report_fixup() does not take ownership of the returned pointer, but it *is* permitted to return a sub-portion of the input rdesc, whose lifetime is managed by the caller.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: altera-tse: fix skb leak on DMA mapping error in tse_start_xmit() When dma_map_single() fails in tse_start_xmit(), the function returns NETDEV_TX_OK without freeing the skb. Since NETDEV_TX_OK tells the stack the packet was consumed, the skb is never freed, leaking memory on every DMA mapping failure. Add dev_kfree_skb_any() before returning to properly free the skb.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/vma: fix memory leak in __mmap_region() commit 605f6586ecf7 ("mm/vma: do not leak memory when .mmap_prepare swaps the file") handled the success path by skipping get_file() via file_doesnt_need_get, but missed the error path. When /dev/zero is mmap'd with MAP_SHARED, mmap_zero_prepare() calls shmem_zero_setup_desc() which allocates a new shmem file to back the mapping. If __mmap_new_vma() subsequently fails, this replacement file is never fput()'d - the original is released by ksys_mmap_pgoff(), but nobody releases the new one. Add fput() for the swapped file in the error path. Reproducible with fault injection.

A memory leak flaw was found in nft_set_catchall_flush in net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c in the Linux Kernel. This issue may allow a local attacker to cause double-deactivations of catchall elements, which can result in a memory leak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/hugetlb: restore failed global reservations to subpool Commit a833a693a490 ("mm: hugetlb: fix incorrect fallback for subpool") fixed an underflow error for hstate->resv_huge_pages caused by incorrectly attributing globally requested pages to the subpool's reservation. Unfortunately, this fix also introduced the opposite problem, which would leave spool->used_hpages elevated if the globally requested pages could not be acquired. This is because while a subpool's reserve pages only accounts for what is requested and allocated from the subpool, its "used" counter keeps track of what is consumed in total, both from the subpool and globally. Thus, we need to adjust spool->used_hpages in the other direction, and make sure that globally requested pages are uncharged from the subpool's used counter. Each failed allocation attempt increments the used_hpages counter by how many pages were requested from the global pool. Ultimately, this renders the subpool unusable, as used_hpages approaches the max limit. The issue can be reproduced as follows: 1. Allocate 4 hugetlb pages 2. Create a hugetlb mount with max=4, min=2 3. Consume 2 pages globally 4. Request 3 pages from the subpool (2 from subpool + 1 from global) 4.1 hugepage_subpool_get_pages(spool, 3) succeeds. used_hpages += 3 4.2 hugetlb_acct_memory(h, 1) fails: no global pages left used_hpages -= 2 5. Subpool now has used_hpages = 1, despite not being able to successfully allocate any hugepages. It believes it can now only allocate 3 more hugepages, not 4. With each failed allocation attempt incrementing the used counter, the subpool eventually reaches a point where its used counter equals its max counter. At that point, any future allocations that try to allocate hugeTLB pages from the subpool will fail, despite the subpool not having any of its hugeTLB pages consumed by any user. Once this happens, there is no way to make the subpool usable again, since there is no way to decrement the used counter as no process is really consuming the hugeTLB pages. The underflow issue that the original commit fixes still remains fixed as well. Without this fix, used_hpages would keep on leaking if hugetlb_acct_memory() fails.

An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.8.10. virt/kvm/kvm_main.c has a kvm_io_bus_unregister_dev memory leak upon a kmalloc failure, aka CID-f65886606c2d.

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.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: PCI: Fix reset_method_store() memory leak In reset_method_store(), a string is allocated via kstrndup() and assigned to the local "options". options is then used in with strsep() to find spaces: while ((name = strsep(&options, " ")) != NULL) { If there are no remaining spaces, then options is set to NULL by strsep(), so the subsequent kfree(options) doesn't free the memory allocated via kstrndup(). Fix by using a separate tmp_options to iterate with strsep() so options is preserved.
