Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> mm/damon/stat: fix memory leak on damon_start() failure in damon_stat_start()<br /> <br /> Destroy the DAMON context and reset the global pointer when damon_start()<br /> fails. Otherwise, the context allocated by damon_stat_build_ctx() is<br /> leaked, and the stale damon_stat_context pointer will be overwritten on<br /> the next enable attempt, making the old allocation permanently<br /> unreachable.
