| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: vivid: fix cleanup bugs in vivid_init()
When platform_device_register() fails in vivid_init(), the embedded
struct device in vivid_pdev has already been initialized by
device_initialize(), but the failure path jumps to free_output_strings
without dropping the device reference for the current platform device:
vivid_init()
-> platform_device_register(&vivid_pdev)
-> device_initialize(&vivid_pdev.dev)
-> setup_pdev_dma_masks(&vivid_pdev)
-> platform_device_add(&vivid_pdev)
This leads to a reference leak when platform_device_register() fails.
Fix this by calling platform_device_put() before jumping to the common
cleanup path.
Also, the unreg_driver label incorrectly calls
platform_driver_register() instead of platform_driver_unregister(),
which breaks cleanup when workqueue creation fails after successful
driver registration. Fix that as well.
The reference leak was identified by a static analysis tool I developed
and confirmed by manual review. The incorrect cleanup call was found
during code inspection. |

gpio: rockchip: teardown bugs and resource leaks
Address several teardown issues and resource leaks in the driver's remove
path and error handling:
1. Debounce clock reference leak: The debounce clock (bank->db_clk) is
obtained using of_clk_get() which increments the clock's reference
count, but clk_put() is never called. Register a devm action to
cleanly release it on unbind. Note that of_clk_get(..., 1) remains
necessary over devm_clk_get() because the DT binding does not define
clock-names, precluding name-based lookup.
2. Unregistered chained IRQ handler: The chained IRQ handler is not
disconnected in remove(). If a stray interrupt fires after the driver
is removed, the kernel attempts to execute a stale handler, leading
to a panic. Fix this by clearing the handler in remove().
3. IRQ domain leak: The linear IRQ domain and its generic chips are
allocated manually during probe but never removed. Remove the IRQ
domain during driver teardown to free the associated generic chips
and mappings.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
erofs: fix metabuf leak in inode xattr initialization
commit bb88e8da0025 ("erofs: use meta buffers for xattr operations")
converted xattr operations to use on-stack erofs_buf instances.
erofs_init_inode_xattrs() uses such a metabuf while reading the inline
xattr header and shared xattr id array.
Some error paths after erofs_read_metabuf() leave through out_unlock
without dropping the metabuf, so the folio reference can leak.
Consolidate the cleanup at out_unlock. erofs_put_metabuf() is a
no-op if no folio has been acquired, and this keeps all paths after
taking EROFS_I_BL_XATTR_BIT covered by a single cleanup site. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfs: Fix leak of request in netfs_write_begin() error handling
Fix netfs_write_begin() to not leak our ref on the request in the event
that we get an error from netfs_wait_for_read(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ethtool: rss: fix indir_table and hkey leak on get_rxfh failure
rss_prepare_get() allocates the indirection table and hash key buffer
via rss_get_data_alloc(), then calls ops->get_rxfh() to populate them.
If get_rxfh() fails, the function returns an error without freeing
the allocation. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm: always recover the gpu
Previously, in case there was no more work to do, recover worker
wouldn't trigger recovery and would instead rely on the gpu going to
sleep and then resuming when more work is submitted.
Recover_worker will first increment the fence of the hung ring so, if
there's only one job submitted to a ring and that causes an hang, it
will early out.
There's no guarantee that the gpu will suspend and resume before more
work is submitted and if the gpu is in a hung state it will stay in that
state and probably trigger a timeout again.
Just stop checking and always recover the gpu.

wifi: ath11k: fix memory leaks in beacon template setup
The functions ath11k_mac_setup_bcn_tmpl_ema() and
ath11k_mac_setup_bcn_tmpl_mbssid() allocate memory for beacon templates
but fail to free it when parameter setup returns an error.
Since beacon templates must be released during normal execution, they
must also be released in the error handling paths to prevent memory
leaks.
Fix this by using unified exit paths with proper cleanup in the respective
error paths.
Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool
and code review. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: Fix memory leak destroying device
All MT76 rx queues have an associated page_pool even if the queue is not
associated to a NAPI (e.g. WED RRO queues with WED enabled). Destroy the
page_pool running mt76_dma_cleanup routine during module unload.
Moreover returns pages to the page pool if WED is not enabled for WED RRO
queues. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: Fix memory leak after mt76_connac_mcu_alloc_sta_req()
mt76_connac_mcu_alloc_sta_req() allocates an skb which is expected to
be freed eventually by mt76_mcu_skb_send_msg(). However, currently if
an intermediate function fails before sending, the allocated skb is
leaked.
Specifically, mt76_connac_mcu_sta_wed_update() and
mt76_connac_mcu_sta_key_tlv() may fail, leading to an immediate memory
leak in the error path.
Fix this by explicitly freeing the skb in these error paths.
Commit 7c0f63fe37a5 ("wifi: mt76: mt7996: fix memory leak on
mt7996_mcu_sta_key_tlv error") made a similar change.
Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool
and code review. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: ch341: fix devres lifetime
USB drivers bind to USB interfaces and any device managed resources
should have their lifetime tied to the interface rather than parent USB
device. This avoids issues like memory leaks when drivers are unbound
without their devices being physically disconnected (e.g. on probe
deferral or configuration changes).
Fix the controller and driver data lifetime so that they are released
on driver unbind.
Note that this also makes sure that the SPI controller is placed
correctly under the USB interface in the device tree. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
riscv: kvm: fix vector context allocation leak
When the second kzalloc (host_context.vector.datap) fails in
kvm_riscv_vcpu_alloc_vector_context, the first allocation
(guest_context.vector.datap) is leaked. Free it before returning. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipmi:ssif: Clean up kthread on errors
If an error occurs after the ssif kthread is created, but before the
main IPMI code starts the ssif interface, the ssif kthread will not
be stopped.
So make sure the kthread is stopped on an error condition if it is
running. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gfs2: fix memory leaks in gfs2_fill_super error path
Fix two memory leaks in the gfs2_fill_super() error handling path when
transitioning a filesystem to read-write mode fails.
First leak: kthread objects (thread_struct, task_struct, etc.)
When gfs2_freeze_lock_shared() fails after init_threads() succeeds, the
created kernel threads (logd and quotad) are never destroyed. This
occurs because the fail_per_node label doesn't call
gfs2_destroy_threads().
Second leak: quota bitmap buffer (8192 bytes)
When gfs2_make_fs_rw() fails after gfs2_quota_init() succeeds but
before other operations complete, the allocated quota bitmap is never
freed.
The fix moves thread cleanup to the fail_per_node label to handle all
error paths uniformly. gfs2_destroy_threads() is safe to call
unconditionally as it checks for NULL pointers. Quota cleanup is added
in gfs2_make_fs_rw() to properly handle the withdrawal case where
quota initialization succeeds but the filesystem is then withdrawn.

most: core: fix leak on early registration failure
A recent commit fixed a resource leak on early registration failures but
for some reason left out the first error path which still leaks the
resources associated with the interface.
Fix up also the first error path so that the interface is always
released on errors. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix extent map leak in NOCOW direct I/O write
btrfs_dio_iomap_begin() calls btrfs_get_extent(), which returns an
extent map reference that must be dropped on all exit paths.
For direct writes into a NOCOW range, btrfs_get_blocks_direct_write()
keeps using that extent map and asks btrfs_create_dio_extent() to
allocate the ordered extent. If that fails, for example because
btrfs_alloc_ordered_extent() fails, the function returns the error
without dropping the input extent map. The PREALLOC path avoided this by
dropping the input extent map before replacing it with the newly created
one.
Check the error from btrfs_create_dio_extent() before replacing the
map and drop the input extent map on failure. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cpufreq: apple-soc: Fix OPP table cleanup
apple_soc_cpufreq_init() adds OPP tables from firmware, but
some failure paths do not remove them. The driver also uses
dev_pm_opp_remove_all_dynamic(), which is not the right cleanup
helper for OPP tables loaded from firmware.
Use the cpumask OPP helper after the policy CPU mask has been
populated. Pair it with the matching cpumask remove helper on
failure paths and in apple_soc_cpufreq_exit(). This also removes
the separate dev_pm_opp_set_sharing_cpus() call, as the cpumask
helper loads the DT OPP tables for all CPUs in the policy. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
SUNRPC: reject duplicate CREDS_VALUE options
gssx_dec_option_array() walks the wire-supplied option array and, for
every entry whose name matches CREDS_VALUE, calls
gssx_dec_linux_creds() on the same struct svc_cred. That helper
unconditionally installs a fresh groups_alloc() result into
creds->cr_group_info without releasing whatever pointer was already
there:
for (i = 0; i < count; i++) {
... decode name ...
if (length == sizeof(CREDS_VALUE) &&
memcmp(p, CREDS_VALUE, sizeof(CREDS_VALUE)) == 0) {
err = gssx_dec_linux_creds(xdr, creds);
...
}
}
A reply that carries two CREDS_VALUE entries therefore overwrites
cr_group_info on the second iteration and orphans the group_info
allocated by the first call. The earlier free_creds path only
releases the last cr_group_info via free_svc_cred(), so the first
allocation's refcount stays at one and its kvmalloc-backed storage
is leaked. No in-tree caller of gssp_accept_sec_context_upcall()
expects more than one CREDS_VALUE per reply.
Fix by tracking whether a CREDS_VALUE option has already been
decoded and returning -EINVAL on any subsequent match, so the
free_creds path releases the single group_info that was installed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
svcrdma: Reject connection when transport allocation fails
handle_connect_req() returns without action when
svc_rdma_create_xprt() fails to allocate the new transport.
The CM core returns 0 for CONNECT_REQUEST events, so it does
not destroy the new rdma_cm_id. Each allocation failure under
memory pressure leaks one rdma_cm_id, and a remote peer driving
connection attempts can amplify this.
Reject the connection by returning a non-zero status from the
CM event handler, which tells the CM core to destroy the
orphaned cm_id. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
svcrdma: Use svc_xprt_put to free listener on create failure
svc_rdma_create() calls kfree(cma_xprt) when
svc_rdma_create_listen_id() fails. svc_xprt_init() has already
acquired a net namespace reference via get_net_track(); kfree
bypasses svc_xprt_free() which releases it.
Replace the kfree() with svc_xprt_put() so the kref_init birth
reference drops to zero and svc_xprt_free() dispatches
svc_rdma_free() to clean up properly. sc_cm_id is still NULL
at that point; the preceding patch added the necessary NULL
guard in svc_rdma_free().
svc_xprt_free() also drops the module reference via
module_put(), but the caller _svc_xprt_create() does the same
on xpo_create failure, double-putting the single
try_module_get() it acquired. Take a compensating
__module_get() before the svc_xprt_put() to keep the count
balanced, matching the convention in svc_rdma_accept()'s error
path. |

platform/x86: int1092: Fix potential memory leak in sar_probe()
The memory allocated for device_mode_info in parse_package() called by
sar_get_data() is not freed in some of the error paths in sar_probe().
Fix that by converting to use device managed allocations. |
