Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
crypto: starfive - Fix memory leak in starfive_aes_aead_do_one_req()<br />
<br />
The starfive_aes_aead_do_one_req() function allocates rctx->adata with<br />
kzalloc() but fails to free it if sg_copy_to_buffer() or<br />
starfive_aes_hw_init() fails, which lead to memory leaks.<br />
<br />
Since rctx->adata is unconditionally freed after the write_adata<br />
operations, ensure consistent cleanup by freeing the allocation in these<br />
earlier error paths as well.<br />
<br />
Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool<br />
and code review.
