Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> rocker: fix memory leak in rocker_world_port_post_fini()<br /> <br /> In rocker_world_port_pre_init(), rocker_port-&gt;wpriv is allocated with<br /> kzalloc(wops-&gt;port_priv_size, GFP_KERNEL). However, in<br /> rocker_world_port_post_fini(), the memory is only freed when<br /> wops-&gt;port_post_fini callback is set:<br /> <br /> if (!wops-&gt;port_post_fini)<br /> return;<br /> wops-&gt;port_post_fini(rocker_port);<br /> kfree(rocker_port-&gt;wpriv);<br /> <br /> Since rocker_ofdpa_ops does not implement port_post_fini callback<br /> (it is NULL), the wpriv memory allocated for each port is never freed<br /> when ports are removed. This leads to a memory leak of<br /> sizeof(struct ofdpa_port) bytes per port on every device removal.<br /> <br /> Fix this by always calling kfree(rocker_port-&gt;wpriv) regardless of<br /> whether the port_post_fini callback exists.
