Upstream advisory: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-cve-announce/2024102115-CVE-2024-47755-2cb3@gregkh/T This CVE has been rejected upstream: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-cve-announce/2024102325-REJECTED-5016@gregkh/T/#u |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nvdimm: Fix devs leaks in scan_labels() scan_labels() leaks memory when label scanning fails and it falls back to just creating a default "seed" namespace for userspace to configure. Root can force the kernel to leak memory. Allocate the minimum resources unconditionally and release them when unneeded to avoid the memory leak.
