Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-07-25 16:03:22 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

raid10: cleanup memleak at raid10_make_request

If raid10_read_request or raid10_write_request registers a new
request and the REQ_NOWAIT flag is set, the code does not
free the malloc from the mempool.
