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

ubifs: dirty_cow_znode: Fix memleak in error handling path

Following process will cause a memleak for copied up znode:

dirty_cow_znode
  zn = copy_znode(c, znode);
  err = insert_old_idx(c, zbr->lnum, zbr->offs);
  if (unlikely(err))
     return ERR_PTR(err);   // No one refers to zn.

Fix it by adding copied znode back to tnc, then it will be freed
by ubifs_destroy_tnc_subtree() while closing tnc.
