Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> media: chips-media: wave5: Fix memory leak on codec_info allocation failure<br /> <br /> In wave5_vpu_open_enc() and wave5_vpu_open_dec(), a vpu instance is<br /> allocated via kzalloc(). If the subsequent allocation for inst-&gt;codec_info<br /> fails, the functions return -ENOMEM without freeing the previously<br /> allocated instance, causing a memory leak.<br /> <br /> Fix this by calling kfree() on the instance in this error path to ensure<br /> it is properly released.
