Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
mm, slab: clean up slab->obj_exts always<br />
<br />
When memory allocation profiling is disabled at runtime or due to an<br />
error, shutdown_mem_profiling() is called: slab->obj_exts which<br />
previously allocated remains.<br />
It won&#39;t be cleared by unaccount_slab() because of<br />
mem_alloc_profiling_enabled() not true. It&#39;s incorrect, slab->obj_exts<br />
should always be cleaned up in unaccount_slab() to avoid following error:<br />
<br />
[...]BUG: Bad page state in process...<br />
..<br />
[...]page dumped because: page still charged to cgroup<br />
<br />
