Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> scsi: smartpqi: Fix memory leak in pqi_report_phys_luns()<br /> <br /> pqi_report_phys_luns() fails to release the rpl_list buffer when<br /> encountering an unsupported data format or when the allocation for<br /> rpl_16byte_wwid_list fails. These early returns bypass the cleanup logic,<br /> leading to memory leaks.<br /> <br /> Consolidate the error handling by adding an out_free_rpl_list label and use<br /> goto statements to ensure rpl_list is consistently freed on failure.<br /> <br /> Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool and<br /> code review.
