In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bpf: Fix memory leaks in __check_func_call

kmemleak reports this issue:

The root case here is: In function prepare_func_exit(), the callee is
not released in the abnormal scenario after "state->curframe--;". To
fix, move "state->curframe--;" to the very bottom of the function,
right when we free callee and reset frame[] pointer to NULL, as Andrii
suggested.

In addition, function __check_func_call() has a similar problem. In
the abnormal scenario before "state->curframe++;", the callee also
should be released by free_func_state().
