2024-03-25 CVE-2021-47150 Memory Leak vulnerability in Linux Kernel
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: fec: fix the potential memory leak in fec_enet_init() If the memory allocated for cbd_base is failed, it should free the memory allocated for the queues, otherwise it causes memory leak. And if the memory allocated for the queues is failed, it can return error directly.

2024-03-15 CVE-2021-47119 Memory Leak vulnerability in Linux Kernel
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: fix memory leak in ext4_fill_super Buffer head references must be released before calling kill_bdev(); otherwise the buffer head (and its page referenced by b_data) will not be freed by kill_bdev, and subsequently that bh will be leaked. If blocksizes differ, sb_set_blocksize() will kill current buffers and page cache by using kill_bdev().
