In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: mpi3mr: Fix memory leaks
Fix memory leaks related to operational reply queue's memory segments which
are not getting freed while unloading the driver.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: vchiq_arm: Avoid NULL ptr deref in vchiq_dump_platform_instances
vchiq_get_state() can return a NULL pointer. So handle this cases and
avoid a NULL pointer derefence in vchiq_dump_platform_instances.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ceph: fix memory leak in ceph_readdir when note_last_dentry returns error
Reset the last_readdir at the same time, and add a comment explaining
why we don't free last_readdir when dir_emit returns false.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: mediatek: Fix memory leaks on probe
Handle the error branches to free memory where required.
Addresses-Coverity-ID: 1491825 ("Resource leak")
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ceph: fix inode reference leakage in ceph_get_snapdir()
The ceph_get_inode() will search for or insert a new inode into the
hash for the given vino, and return a reference to it. If new is
non-NULL, its reference is consumed.
We should release the reference when in error handing cases.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: conntrack: revisit gc autotuning
as of commit 4608fdfc07e1
("netfilter: conntrack: collect all entries in one cycle")
conntrack gc was changed to run every 2 minutes.
On systems where conntrack hash table is set to large value, most evictions
happen from gc worker rather than the packet path due to hash table
distribution.
This causes netlink event overflows when events are collected.
This change collects average expiry of scanned entries and
reschedules to the average remaining value, within 1 to 60 second interval.
To avoid event overflows, reschedule after each bucket and add a
limit for both run time and number of evictions per run.
If more entries have to be evicted, reschedule and restart 1 jiffy
into the future.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/secvar: fix refcount leak in format_show()
Refcount leak will happen when format_show returns failure in multiple
cases. Unified management of of_node_put can fix this problem.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI: endpoint: Fix misused goto label
Fix a misused goto label jump since that can result in a memory leak.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: use memset avoid memory leaks
Use memset to initialize structs to prevent memory leaks
in l2cap_ecred_connect
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFS: Avoid writeback threads getting stuck in mempool_alloc()
In a low memory situation, allow the NFS writeback code to fail without
getting stuck in infinite loops in mempool_alloc().
