Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> mtd: parsers: Fix memory leak in mtd_parser_tplink_safeloader_parse()<br /> <br /> The function mtd_parser_tplink_safeloader_parse() allocates buf via<br /> mtd_parser_tplink_safeloader_read_table(). If the allocation for<br /> parts[idx].name fails inside the loop, the code jumps to the err_free<br /> label without freeing buf, leading to a memory leak.<br /> <br /> Fix this by freeing the temporary buffer buf in the err_free label.<br /> <br /> Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool<br /> and code review.
