| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
eventpoll: defer struct eventpoll free to RCU grace period
In certain situations, ep_free() in eventpoll.c will kfree the epi->ep
eventpoll struct while it still being used by another concurrent thread.
Defer the kfree() to an RCU callback to prevent UAF. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_phonet: fix skb frags[] overflow in pn_rx_complete()
A broken/bored/mean USB host can overflow the skb_shared_info->frags[]
array on a Linux gadget exposing a Phonet function by sending an
unbounded sequence of full-page OUT transfers.
pn_rx_complete() finalizes the skb only when req->actual < req->length,
where req->length is set to PAGE_SIZE by the gadget. If the host always
sends exactly PAGE_SIZE bytes per transfer, fp->rx.skb will never be
reset and each completion will add another fragment via
skb_add_rx_frag(). Once nr_frags exceeds MAX_SKB_FRAGS (default 17),
subsequent frag stores overwrite memory adjacent to the shinfo on the
heap.
Drop the skb and account a length error when the frag limit is reached,
matching the fix applied in t7xx by commit f0813bcd2d9d ("net: wwan:
t7xx: fix potential skb->frags overflow in RX path"). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: vidtv: fix nfeeds state corruption on start_streaming failure
syzbot reported a memory leak in vidtv_psi_service_desc_init [1].
When vidtv_start_streaming() fails inside vidtv_start_feed(), the
nfeeds counter is left incremented even though no feed was actually
started. This corrupts the driver state: subsequent start_feed calls
see nfeeds > 1 and skip starting the mux, while stop_feed calls
eventually try to stop a non-existent stream.
This state corruption can also lead to memory leaks, since the mux
and channel resources may be partially allocated during a failed
start_streaming but never cleaned up, as the stop path finds
dvb->streaming == false and returns early.
Fix by decrementing nfeeds back when start_streaming fails, keeping
the counter in sync with the actual number of active feeds.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: always free skb on ieee80211_tx_prepare_skb() failure
ieee80211_tx_prepare_skb() has three error paths, but only two of them
free the skb. The first error path (ieee80211_tx_prepare() returning
TX_DROP) does not free it, while invoke_tx_handlers() failure and the
fragmentation check both do.
Add kfree_skb() to the first error path so all three are consistent,
and remove the now-redundant frees in callers (ath9k, mt76,
mac80211_hwsim) to avoid double-free.
Document the skb ownership guarantee in the function's kdoc. |

| 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. |

Bluetooth: hci_ll: Fix firmware leak on error path
Smatch reports:
drivers/bluetooth/hci_ll.c:587 download_firmware() warn:
'fw' from request_firmware() not released on lines: 544.
In download_firmware(), if request_firmware() succeeds but the returned
firmware content is invalid (no data or zero size), the function returns
without releasing the firmware, resulting in a resource leak.
Fix this by calling release_firmware() before returning when
request_firmware() succeeded but the firmware content is invalid. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix iloc.bh leak in ext4_fc_replay_inode() error paths
During code review, Joseph found that ext4_fc_replay_inode() calls
ext4_get_fc_inode_loc() to get the inode location, which holds a
reference to iloc.bh that must be released via brelse().
However, several error paths jump to the 'out' label without
releasing iloc.bh:
- ext4_handle_dirty_metadata() failure
- sync_dirty_buffer() failure
- ext4_mark_inode_used() failure
- ext4_iget() failure
Fix this by introducing an 'out_brelse' label placed just before
the existing 'out' label to ensure iloc.bh is always released.
Additionally, make ext4_fc_replay_inode() propagate errors
properly instead of always returning 0. |

This occurs when allocating MSI-X vectors for an NVMe device. During
allocation the XIVE code creates a struct xive_irq_data and stores it
in irq_data->chip_data.
When the MSI-X irqdomain is later freed, xive_irq_free_data() is
responsible for retrieving this structure and freeing it. However,
after commit cc0cc23babc9 ("powerpc/xive: Untangle xive from child
interrupt controller drivers"), xive_irq_free_data() retrieves the
chip_data using irq_get_chip_data(), which looks up the data through
the child domain.
This is incorrect because the XIVE-specific irq data is associated with
the XIVE (parent) domain. As a result the lookup fails and the allocated
struct xive_irq_data is never freed, leading to the kmemleak report
shown above.
Fix this by retrieving the irq_data from the correct domain using
irq_domain_get_irq_data() and then accessing the chip_data via
irq_data_get_irq_chip_data(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: fix ntfs_mount_options leak in ntfs_fill_super()
In ntfs_fill_super(), the fc->fs_private pointer is set to NULL without
first freeing the memory it points to. This causes the subsequent call to
ntfs_fs_free() to skip freeing the ntfs_mount_options structure.
This results in a kmemleak report:

This issue can be reproduced using the following commands:
fallocate -l 100M test.file
mount test.file /tmp/test
Since sbi->options is duplicated from fc->fs_private and does not
directly use the memory allocated for fs_private, it is unnecessary to
set fc->fs_private to NULL.
Additionally, this patch simplifies the code by utilizing the helper
function put_mount_options() instead of open-coding the cleanup logic. |
| png_create_info_struct in png.c in libpng 1.6.36 has a memory leak, as demonstrated by pngcp. NOTE: a third party has stated "I don't think it is libpng's job to free this buffer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
soc: mediatek: svs: Fix memory leak in svs_enable_debug_write()
In svs_enable_debug_write(), the buf allocated by memdup_user_nul()
is leaked if kstrtoint() fails.
Fix this by using __free(kfree) to automatically free buf, eliminating
the need for explicit kfree() calls and preventing leaks.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: chips-media: wave5: Fix memory leak on codec_info allocation failure
In wave5_vpu_open_enc() and wave5_vpu_open_dec(), a vpu instance is
allocated via kzalloc(). If the subsequent allocation for inst->codec_info
fails, the functions return -ENOMEM without freeing the previously
allocated instance, causing a memory leak.
Fix this by calling kfree() on the instance in this error path to ensure
it is properly released. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rust: pwm: Fix potential memory leak on init error
When initializing a PWM chip using pwmchip_alloc(), the allocated device
owns an initial reference that must be released on all error paths.
If __pinned_init() were to fail, the allocated pwm_chip would currently
leak because the error path returns without calling pwmchip_put(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tpm: tpm_i2c_infineon: Fix locality leak on get_burstcount() failure
get_burstcount() can return -EBUSY on timeout. When this happens, the
function returns directly without releasing the locality that was
acquired at the beginning of tpm_tis_i2c_send().
Use goto out_err to ensure proper cleanup when get_burstcount() fails. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mfd: arizona: Fix regulator resource leak on wm5102_clear_write_sequencer() failure
The wm5102_clear_write_sequencer() helper may return an error
and just return, bypassing the cleanup sequence and causing
regulators to remain enabled, leading to a resource leak.
Change the direct return to jump to the err_reset label to
properly free the resources. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
af_unix: Fix memleak of newsk in unix_stream_connect().
When prepare_peercred() fails in unix_stream_connect(),
unix_release_sock() is not called for newsk, and the memory
is leaked.
Let's move prepare_peercred() before unix_create1(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i3c: dw: Fix memory leak in dw_i3c_master_i2c_xfers()
The dw_i3c_master_i2c_xfers() function allocates memory for the xfer
structure using dw_i3c_master_alloc_xfer(). If pm_runtime_resume_and_get()
fails, the function returns without freeing the allocated xfer, resulting
in a memory leak.
Add a dw_i3c_master_free_xfer() call to the error path to ensure the
allocated memory is properly freed.
Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool
and code review. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
SUNRPC: auth_gss: fix memory leaks in XDR decoding error paths
The gssx_dec_ctx(), gssx_dec_status(), and gssx_dec_name()
functions allocate memory via gssx_dec_buffer(), which calls
kmemdup(). When a subsequent decode operation fails, these
functions return immediately without freeing previously
allocated buffers, causing memory leaks.
The leak in gssx_dec_ctx() is particularly relevant because
the caller (gssp_accept_sec_context_upcall) initializes several
buffer length fields to non-zero values, resulting in memory
allocation:
struct gssx_ctx rctxh = {
.exported_context_token.len = GSSX_max_output_handle_sz,
.mech.len = GSS_OID_MAX_LEN,
.src_name.display_name.len = GSSX_max_princ_sz,
.targ_name.display_name.len = GSSX_max_princ_sz
};
If, for example, gssx_dec_name() succeeds for src_name but
fails for targ_name, the memory allocated for
exported_context_token, mech, and src_name.display_name
remains unreferenced and cannot be reclaimed.
Add error handling with goto-based cleanup to free any
previously allocated buffers before returning an error. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: caam - fix netdev memory leak in dpaa2_caam_probe
When commit 0e1a4d427f58 ("crypto: caam: Unembed net_dev structure in
dpaa2") converted embedded net_device to dynamically allocated pointers,
it added cleanup in dpaa2_dpseci_disable() but missed adding cleanup in
dpaa2_dpseci_free() for error paths.
This causes memory leaks when dpaa2_dpseci_dpio_setup() fails during probe
due to DPIO devices not being ready yet. The kernel's deferred probe
mechanism handles the retry successfully, but the netdevs allocated during
the failed probe attempt are never freed, resulting in kmemleak reports
showing multiple leaked netdev-related allocations all traced back to
dpaa2_caam_probe().
Fix this by preserving the CPU mask of allocated netdevs during setup and
using it for cleanup in dpaa2_dpseci_free(). This approach ensures that
only the CPUs that actually had netdevs allocated will be cleaned up,
avoiding potential issues with CPU hotplug scenarios. |
