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

bpf, verifier: Fix memory leak in array reallocation for stack state

If an error (NULL) is returned by krealloc(), callers of realloc_array()
were setting their allocation pointers to NULL, but on error krealloc()
does not touch the original allocation. This would result in a memory
resource leak. Instead, free the old allocation on the error handling
path.

The memory leak information is as follows as also reported by Zhengchao:

  unreferenced object 0xffff888019801800 (size 256):
  comm "bpf_repo", pid 6490, jiffies 4294959200 (age 17.170s)
