Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> staging: rtl8723bs: fix memory leak on failure path<br /> <br /> cfg80211_inform_bss_frame() may return NULL on failure. In that case,<br /> the allocated buffer &amp;#39;buf&amp;#39; is not freed and the function returns early,<br /> leading to potential memory leak.<br /> Fix this by ensuring that &amp;#39;buf&amp;#39; is freed on both success and failure paths.
