Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
drm/virtio: fix dma_fence refcount leak on error in virtio_gpu_dma_fence_wait()<br />
<br />
dma_fence_unwrap_for_each() internally calls dma_fence_unwrap_first()<br />
which does cursor->chain = dma_fence_get(head), taking an extra<br />
reference. On normal loop completion, dma_fence_unwrap_next()<br />
releases this via dma_fence_chain_walk() -> dma_fence_put().<br />
<br />
When virtio_gpu_do_fence_wait() fails and the function returns early<br />
from inside the loop, the cursor->chain reference is never released.<br />
This is the only caller in the entire kernel that does an early return<br />
inside dma_fence_unwrap_for_each.<br />
<br />
Add dma_fence_put(itr.chain) before the early return.
