platform/x86: dell-laptop: fix missing cleanups in init error path
dell_init() initializes several resources after dell_setup_rfkill(),
including the optional touchpad LED, keyboard backlight LED, battery
hook, debugfs directory and dell-laptop notifier.
If a later LED or backlight registration fails, the error path only
tears down the battery hook and rfkill resources. This leaves the
notifier, debugfs directory, keyboard backlight LED and optional
touchpad LED registered after dell_init() returns an error.
Add the missing cleanup calls before tearing down rfkill. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
platform/x86/intel/tpmi: use cleanup helpers in mem_write()
In mem_write(), the temporary array returned by
parse_int_array_user() must be released on all exit paths.
Convert the array variable to use cleanup.h scope-based
cleanup so it is freed automatically on return.
This also moves the array declaration next to
parse_int_array_user() as required by cleanup.h usage
guidelines. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvdimm/btt: Free arenas on btt_init() error paths
The arenas allocated by discover_arenas() or create_arenas() are not
freed on some error paths in btt_init(). This leaks memory when BTT
initialization fails.
Call free_arenas() from the affected error paths to release the
allocations.

mfd: sm501: Fix reference leak on failed device registration
When platform_device_register() fails in sm501_register_device(), the
embedded struct device in pdev has already been initialized by
device_initialize(), but the failure path only reports the error and
returns without dropping the device reference for the current platform
device:
sm501_register_device()
-> platform_device_register(pdev)
-> device_initialize(&pdev->dev)
-> setup_pdev_dma_masks(pdev)
-> platform_device_add(pdev)
This leads to a reference leak when platform_device_register() fails.
Fix this by calling platform_device_put() before returning the error.
The issue was identified by a static analysis tool I developed and
confirmed by manual review. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: free volume-wide resources on fill_super failure
ntfs_fill_super()'s err_out_now path frees only the volume struct via
kfree(vol), leaving several vol-owned allocations behind on every mount
failure:
- vol->nls_map, loaded by ntfs_init_fs_context() via
load_nls_default() (or replaced by an explicit nls= option in
ntfs_parse_param()), is never unload_nls()'d.
- vol->volume_label, allocated by load_system_files() through
ntfs_ucstonls() once the $Volume name attribute has been parsed, is
not released by load_system_files()'s own error labels nor by the
fill_super() inline cleanup that only runs on d_make_root()
failure. Any later failure inside load_system_files() leaks it.
- vol->lcn_empty_bits_per_page was kvfree()'d in
unl_upcase_iput_tmp_ino_err_out_now without clearing the pointer,
so it could not be folded into a single common cleanup.
Because the failure paths never call ntfs_volume_free() and never reach
the d_make_root() inline cleanup block (it sits above the label and is
jumped over by the load_system_files() / kvmalloc failure gotos), these
resources accumulate per failed mount attempt with no chance of
recovery short of unloading the module. This is a silent leak: the
inodes loaded prior to failure remain hashed but generic_shutdown_super()
skips evict_inodes() when sb->s_root is unset, so no CHECK_DATA_CORRUPTION
warning is emitted either.
Move the per-volume frees down to err_out_now and drop the
lcn_empty_bits_per_page kvfree() from the upper label so the cleanup is
performed exactly once on every failure path. Using unconditional
kvfree() / kfree() / unload_nls() is safe because they all accept NULL
and the upper labels that previously freed nls_map (the d_make_root()
inline cleanup) already clear the pointer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
lockd: Plug nlm_file leak when nlm_do_fopen() fails
A client can repeatedly drive nlm_do_fopen() failures by presenting
file handles that the underlying export rejects. After kzalloc_obj()
succeeds in nlm_lookup_file(), the freshly allocated nlm_file is not
yet inserted into nlm_files[]. The nlm_do_fopen() failure path jumps
to out_unlock, which releases nlm_file_mutex and returns without
freeing the allocation, so each failure leaks one nlm_file.
Route the failure through out_free so kfree() runs before the
function returns. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvdimm/btt: Free arena sub-allocations on discover_arenas() error path
Memory allocated by btt_freelist_init(), btt_rtt_init(), and
btt_maplocks_init() is not freed on some discover_arenas() error
paths. This leaks memory when arena discovery fails.
Add the missing kfree() calls to release the allocations before
returning an error.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: clean untagged VLAN on netdev registration failure
When an mesh interface is registered, it creates an untagged struct
batadv_meshif_vlan on top of it via the NETDEV_REGISTER notifier. But in
this process, another receiver of this notification can veto the
registration. The netdev registration will be aborted because of this veto.
The register_netdevice() call will try to clean up the net_device using
unregister_netdevice_queue() - which only uses the .priv_destructor to
free private resources. In this situation, .dellink will not be called.
The cleanup of the untagged batadv_meshif_vlan must thefore be done in the
destructor to avoid a leak of this object. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: nvidia: fix potential memory leak in nvidiafb_probe()
In nvidiafb_probe(), the memory allocated for modelist in
nvidia_set_fbinfo() is not freed in the subsequent error paths.
Fix that by calling fb_destroy_modelist(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: mvebu: free generic chips on unbind
irq_alloc_domain_generic_chips() allocates generic chip data that must
be freed via irq_domain_remove_generic_chips(). The devres action
mvebu_gpio_remove_irq_domain() only called irq_domain_remove(), which
only frees the generic chips if IRQ_DOMAIN_FLAG_DESTROY_GC is set.
Call irq_domain_remove_generic_chips() explicitly before
irq_domain_remove() instead. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: radeon: fix potential memory leak in radeonfb_pci_register()
The function radeonfb_pci_register() allocates memory for modelist
(by calling radeon_check_modes() which calls fb_add_videomode()).
The memory is appended to info->modelist, but is not freed in subsequent
error paths. Fix this by calling fb_destroy_modelist(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: broadsheetfb: fix potential memory leak in broadsheetfb_probe()
The memory allocated for pagerefs in fb_deferred_io_init() is not freed
on the error path. Fix it by calling fb_deferred_io_cleanup(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: metronomefb: fix potential memory leak in metronomefb_probe()
The memory allocated for pagerefs in fb_deferred_io_init() is not freed
on the error path. Fix it by calling fb_deferred_io_cleanup(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe: free madvise VMA array on L2 flush failure
xe_vm_madvise_ioctl() allocates madvise_range.vmas in get_vmas().
After get_vmas() succeeds with at least one VMA, error paths must go
through free_vmas so the array is released before the madvise details are
destroyed.
The L2 flush validation path added for PAT madvise rejects some
SVM/userptr ranges after get_vmas() has succeeded, but jumps directly to
madv_fini. This skips kfree(madvise_range.vmas), leaking the VMA array on
each failed ioctl.
Jump to free_vmas instead, matching the other validation failure paths
after get_vmas() has succeeded.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: L2CAP: fix tx ident leak for commands without a response
Commit 6c3ea155e5ee ("Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix not tracking outstanding
TX ident") changed ident allocation to use an IDA, releasing idents in
l2cap_put_ident() when the matching response command is received.
But identifiers allocated for commands that have no response defined
are never released. In particular L2CAP_LE_CREDITS is sent repeatedly for
the lifetime of an LE CoC channel, so a peer streaming data to the
host exhausts the 1-255 ident range after 254 credit packets. From
then on l2cap_get_ident() fails:
kernel: Bluetooth: Unable to allocate ident: -28
and every subsequent L2CAP_LE_CREDITS packet is sent with ident 0,
which is invalid (Core Spec, Vol 3, Part A, Section 4: "Signaling
identifier 0x00 is an invalid identifier and shall never be used in
any command"). Remote stacks that validate the ident drop these
commands, never receive new credits, and the channel stalls
permanently. With default socket buffers this happens after roughly 0.5 MB
of received data (the exact amount depends on the socket receive buffer):
< ACL Data TX: Handle 2048 flags 0x00 dlen 12
LE L2CAP: LE Flow Control Credit (0x16) ident 0 len 4
Source CID: 64
Credits: 1
Release the ident immediately after sending L2CAP_LE_CREDITS since no
response will ever release it. Use a local variable instead of
chan->ident so that an ident that an EXT_FLOWCTL channel may be waiting on
(e.g. a pending reconfigure) is not overwritten by a credit packet.
Also add the missing L2CAP_LE_CONN_RSP case to l2cap_put_ident() so
idents allocated for outgoing L2CAP_LE_CONN_REQ commands are released
when the response arrives. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfs: Fix writeback error handling
Fix the error handling in writeback_iter() loop. If an error occurs,
writeback_iter() needs to be called again with *error set to the error so
that it can clean up iteration state. Further, the current folio needs
unlocking and redirtying. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: phy: sfp: free mii_bus in sfp_i2c_mdiobus_destroy
sfp_i2c_mdiobus_create() allocates the I2C MDIO bus with mdio_i2c_alloc(),
a plain (non-devm) allocation, and registers it. sfp_i2c_mdiobus_destroy()
only unregisters the bus and clears sfp->i2c_mii without calling
mdiobus_free(). As the only reference to the bus is then cleared, the
struct mii_bus is leaked.
This is hit whenever a copper/RollBall SFP module that instantiated an MDIO
bus is removed: sfp_sm_main() takes the global teardown path and calls
sfp_i2c_mdiobus_destroy(). sfp_cleanup(), on driver unbind, frees
sfp->i2c_mii directly, which is why the leak only triggered on module
hot-removal and not on unbind.
Free the bus in sfp_i2c_mdiobus_destroy() to match the allocation done in
sfp_i2c_mdiobus_create(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix insn_aux_data leak on verifier err_free_env path
When bpf_check() allocates env->insn_aux_data successfully but later
fails to allocate env->succ, it jumps directly to err_free_env.
The existing vfree(env->insn_aux_data) sits before the err_free_env
label, so that direct jump bypasses it and leaks insn_aux_data.
Move vfree(env->insn_aux_data) into err_free_env so all early and late
exit paths release it consistently. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
octeontx2-pf: Fix leak of SQ timestamp buffer on teardown
The send-queue timestamp ring is allocated with qmem_alloc() when
timestamping is used, but otx2_free_sq_res() never freed sq->timestamps,
leaking that memory across ifdown and device removal. Add the missing
qmem_free() alongside the other SQ companion buffers. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
apparmor: aa_label_alloc use aa_label_free on alloc failure
aa_label_alloc() allocates a secid before allocating or taking the label
proxy. If the later proxy step fails, the error path only freed the label
memory, leaking any resources initialized by aa_label_init().
Use aa_label_free() on the failure path so partially initialized labels
release their secid and other label resources before the backing memory is
freed. |
