| The Infineon Airoc Wi-Fi driver's transmit callback airoc_mgmt_send() in drivers/wifi/infineon/airoc_wifi.c allocates a net_buf from the fixed airoc_pool for every outbound packet. When whd_network_send_ethernet_data() returns a synchronous failure, the underlying WHD library does not take ownership of the buffer, but the pre-fix driver returned -EIO without releasing it. Each failed transmit therefore permanently leaks one buffer from the pool.
airoc_pool is small and fixed (AIROC_WIFI_TX_PACKET_POOL_COUNT + AIROC_WIFI_RX_PACKET_POOL_COUNT, default 20 buffers) and is shared by WHD's whd_host_buffer_get callback for both transmit and receive. Once enough send failures have leaked the pool dry, airoc_wifi_host_buffer_get() returns WHD_BUFFER_ALLOC_FAIL for all subsequent allocations, so both transmit and the WHD-driven receive path fail and Wi-Fi connectivity is lost until the device is rebooted.
The leak occurs only on the transmit error path. A Wi-Fi-adjacent attacker can influence the conditions that cause synchronous send failures (for example by deauthenticating/disassociating the station while the local stack continues to attempt transmits), and ordinary transient failures over the device's lifetime accumulate toward the same state. Reliable on-demand triggering is of high complexity and the impact is availability-only, but the resulting denial of service is permanent and non-recoverable without a reboot.
The fix releases the buffer with airoc_wifi_buffer_release() on the failure branch, returning it to the pool. The commit also removes a redundant k_sem_give() in airoc_mgmt_disconnect(); because data->sema_common is a binary semaphore (limit 1) the duplicate give merely saturated at 1 and had no security impact. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix SID memory leak in set_posix_acl_entries_dacl() on overflow
Commit 299f962c0b02 ("ksmbd: use check_add_overflow() to prevent u16
DACL size overflow") added check_add_overflow() guards that break out
of the ACE-building loops in set_posix_acl_entries_dacl() when the
accumulated DACL size would wrap past 65535.
However, each iteration allocates a struct smb_sid via kmalloc_obj()
at the top of the loop and relies on the kfree(sid) call at the end
of the loop body (the 'pass_same_sid' label in the first loop, and
the explicit kfree at the tail of the second loop) to release it.
The newly introduced 'break' statements bypass those kfree() calls,
leaking the sid buffer every time an overflow is detected.
A malicious or malformed file with enough POSIX ACL entries to trip
the overflow check will leak one or more struct smb_sid allocations
on every request that touches the file's DACL, providing a trivial
kernel memory exhaustion vector.
Free sid before breaking out of the loops to plug the leak. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: mediatek: vcodec: Fix a resource leak related to the scp device in FW initialization
On Mediatek devices with a system companion processor (SCP) the mtk_scp
structure has to be removed explicitly to avoid a resource leak.
Free the structure in case the allocation of the firmware structure fails
during the firmware initialization. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
devlink: fix net namespace reference leak in reload
devlink_nl_reload_doit() calls devlink_netns_get(), which returns a net
with a held reference. When the requested namespace differs from the
current one and the reload action is not DRIVER_REINIT, the function
returns -EOPNOTSUPP without releasing the reference. Add the missing
put_net() on this error path. |
| ZEBRA is a Zcash node written entirely in Rust. Prior to 4.5.0, an unauthenticated P2P peer can cause the mempool download pipeline to retain transactions after verification reaches the outer RATE_LIMIT_DELAY timeout. In zebrad/src/components/mempool/downloads.rs, Downloads::poll_next removed cancel_handles entries after success and ordinary verification errors, but tokio::time::error::Elapsed did not carry the UnminedTxId needed to remove the timed-out entry. Each retained cancel_handles entry could hold a full Gossip::Tx(UnminedTx), while normal mined-transaction cleanup could not match attacker transactions and no periodic garbage collection or count cap existed. Sustained traffic therefore caused monotonic memory growth until swap pressure degraded the node or the operating system terminated the zebrad process for exhausting memory. This issue is fixed in version 4.5.0. |
| A memory leak occurs in Node.js HTTP/2 servers when a client sends WINDOW_UPDATE frames on stream 0 (connection-level) that cause the flow control window to exceed the maximum value of 2³¹-1. The server correctly sends a GOAWAY frame, but the Http2Session object is never cleaned up.
This vulnerability affects HTTP2 users on Node.js 20, 22, 24 and 25. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock/virtio: fix zerocopy completion for multi-skb sends
When a large message is fragmented into multiple skbs, the zerocopy
uarg is only allocated and attached to the last skb in the loop.
Non-final skbs carry pinned user pages with no completion tracking,
so the kernel has no way to notify userspace when those pages are safe
to reuse. If the loop breaks early the uarg is never allocated at all,
leaking pinned pages with no completion notification.
Fix this by following the approach used by TCP: allocate the zerocopy
uarg (if not provided by the caller) before the send loop and attach
it to every skb via skb_zcopy_set(), which takes a reference per skb.
Each skb's completion properly decrements the refcount, and the
notification only fires after the last skb is freed.
On failure, if no data was sent, the uarg is cleanly aborted via
net_zcopy_put_abort().
This issue was initially discovered by sashiko while reviewing commit
1cb36e252211 ("vsock/virtio: fix MSG_ZEROCOPY pinned-pages accounting")
but was pre-existing. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pds_core: fix debugfs_lookup dentry leak and error handling
debugfs_lookup() returns a dentry with an elevated reference count that
must be released with dput(). The current code discards the returned
dentry without calling dput(), causing a reference leak on every
firmware reset recovery.
Additionally, when CONFIG_DEBUG_FS is disabled, debugfs_lookup()
returns ERR_PTR(-ENODEV), not NULL. The current check passes for error
pointers and would call dput() on an invalid pointer, causing a crash. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/core: Fix FRMR set pinned push error path
Add destruction of FRMR handles in case the push to the pool fails.
This prevents resources leak in case pool page allocation fails. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: dma-axi-dmac: Properly free struct axi_dmac_desc
Use axi_dmac_free_desc() to free fully the descriptor at fail path when
call axi_dmac_alloc_desc() in axi_dmac_prep_peripheral_dma_vec(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: efifb: fix memory leak in efifb_probe()
Since commit 73ce73c30ba9 ("fbdev: Transfer video= option strings to
caller; clarify ownership") the string returned from fb_get_options()
is expected to be freed by the caller, but the string is not freed in
efifb_probe(). Fix that by freeing the option string after setup. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: tdfxfb: fix potential memory leak in tdfxfb_probe()
In tdfxfb_probe(), the memory allocated for modelist using
fb_videomode_to_modelist() when CONFIG_FB_3DFX_I2C is defined, 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:
fbdev: carminefb: fix potential memory leak in alloc_carmine_fb()
The memory allocated for modelist in fb_videomode_to_modelist() is not
freed in the subsequent error path.
Fix that by calling fb_destroy_modelist() |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: fix hole runlist memory leak in insert range error path
ntfs_non_resident_attr_insert_range() allocates hole_rl before mapping the
whole runlist. If ntfs_attr_map_whole_runlist() fails, the error path drops
ni->runlist.lock and returns without freeing hole_rl. This leaks memory
of sizeof(*hole_rl) * 2 bytes.
Fix this memory leak by freeing hole_rl before returning from
that error path, matching the later error paths in the same function. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: elx: efct: Fix I/O leak on unsupported additional CDB
efct_dispatch_fcp_cmd() allocates an efct_io before dispatching an
unsolicited FCP command. If the command has an unsupported additional
CDB, the function returns -EIO before handing the IO to the SCSI layer.
Free the allocated IO before returning from this error path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: sca3000: Fix a resource leak in sca3000_probe()
spi->irq from request_threaded_irq() not released when
iio_device_register() fails. Add an return value check and jump to a
common error handler when iio_device_register() fails. |
| A weakness has been identified in Almico Speedfan 4.52. This affects the function KiSystemCall64 in the library speedfan.sys of the component MSR Index Handler. Executing a manipulation can lead to memory leak. The attack can only be executed locally. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ti: icssm-prueth: fix eth_ports_node leak in probe
The error path on of_property_read_u32() failure inside
icssm_prueth_probe() returns without putting eth_ports_node,
which was acquired before the for_each_child_of_node() loop.
Drop it before returning. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/migrate_device: fix spinlock leak in migrate_vma_insert_huge_pmd_page
When check_stable_address_space() fails after the PMD spinlock has
been acquired via pmd_lock(), the code jumps directly to the abort
label, bypassing the spin_unlock() call in unlock_abort. This causes
the PMD spinlock to be permanently held, leading to a deadlock.
Change the goto target from abort to unlock_abort to ensure the
spinlock is always released on this error path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: mpi3mr: Fix memory leaks
Fix memory leaks related to operational reply queue's memory segments which
are not getting freed while unloading the driver. |
