2024-10-21 CVE-2022-48968 Memory Leak vulnerability in Linux Kernel
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: octeontx2-pf: Fix potential memory leak in otx2_init_tc() In otx2_init_tc(), if rhashtable_init() failed, it does not free tc->tc_entries_bitmap which is allocated in otx2_tc_alloc_ent_bitmap().

2024-10-21 CVE-2022-48975 Memory Leak vulnerability in Linux Kernel
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gpiolib: fix memory leak in gpiochip_setup_dev() Here is a backtrace report about memory leak detected in gpiochip_setup_dev(): unreferenced object 0xffff88810b406400 (size 512): comm "python3", pid 1682, jiffies 4295346908 (age 24.090s) backtrace: kmalloc_trace device_add device_private_init at drivers/base/core.c:3361 (inlined by) device_add at drivers/base/core.c:3411 cdev_device_add gpiolib_cdev_register gpiochip_setup_dev gpiochip_add_data_with_key gcdev_register() & gcdev_unregister() would call device_add() & device_del() (no matter CONFIG_GPIO_CDEV is enabled or not) to register/unregister device. However, if device_add() succeeds, some resource (like struct device_private allocated by device_private_init()) is not released by device_del(). Therefore, after device_add() succeeds by gcdev_register(), it needs to call put_device() to release resource in the error handle path. Here we move forward the register of release function, and let it release every piece of resource by put_device() instead of kfree(). While at it, fix another subtle issue, i.e.
