GHSA-MP79-8QQ6-QP9G
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-25 09:31 – Updated: 2026-07-02 21:32In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: openvswitch: fix possible kfree_skb of ERR_PTR
After the patch in the "Fixes" tag, the allocation of the "reply" skb can happen either before or after locking the ovs_mutex.
However, error cleanups still follow the classical reversed order, assuming "reply" is allocated before locking: it is freed after unlocking.
If "reply" allocation happens after locking the mutex and it fails, "reply" is left with an ERR_PTR, and execution jumps to the correspondent cleanup stage which will try to free an invalid pointer.
Fix this by setting the pointer to NULL after having saved its error value.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-01-23 15:31 – Updated: 2026-02-26 21:31In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: Fix memory and information leak in smb3_reconfigure()
In smb3_reconfigure(), if smb3_sync_session_ctx_passwords() fails, the function returns immediately without freeing and erasing the newly allocated new_password and new_password2. This causes both a memory leak and a potential information leak.
Fix this by calling kfree_sensitive() on both password buffers before returning in this error case.

GHSA-MP8V-432G-7V26
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-11-09 12:30 – Updated: 2025-11-04 00:32In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mlxsw: spectrum_ipip: Fix memory leak when changing remote IPv6 address
The device stores IPv6 addresses that are used for encapsulation in linear memory that is managed by the driver.
Changing the remote address of an ip6gre net device never worked properly, but since cited commit the following reproducer [1] would result in a warning [2] and a memory leak [3]. The problem is that the new remote address is never added by the driver to its hash table (and therefore the device) and the old address is never removed from it.
Fix by programming the new address when the configuration of the ip6gre net device changes and removing the old one. If the address did not change, then the above would result in increasing the reference count of the address and then decreasing it.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-03-27 18:31 – Updated: 2025-04-15 15:30In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/drm_vma_manager: Add drm_vma_node_allow_once()
Currently there is no easy way for a drm driver to safely check and allow drm_vma_offset_node for a drm file just once. Allow drm drivers to call non-refcounted version of drm_vma_node_allow() so that a driver doesn't need to keep track of each drm_vma_node_allow() to call subsequent drm_vma_node_revoke() to prevent memory leak.

GHSA-MQJ7-W9R3-Q3P2
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-24 17:46 – Updated: 2022-08-06 00:00Multiple vulnerabilities exist in the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) implementation for Cisco Small Business RV Series Routers. An unauthenticated, adjacent attacker could execute arbitrary code or cause an affected router to leak system memory or reload. A memory leak or device reload would cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device. For more information about these vulnerabilities, see the Details section of this advisory. Note: LLDP is a Layer 2 protocol. To exploit these vulnerabilities, an attacker must be in the same broadcast domain as the affected device (Layer 2 adjacent).

mISDN: Fix memory leak in dsp_pipeline_build()
dsp_pipeline_build() allocates dup pointer by kstrdup(cfg), but then it updates dup variable by strsep(&dup, "|"). As a result when it calls kfree(dup), the dup variable contains NULL.

GHSA-MR4J-H79V-VCP9
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-05-27 15:33 – Updated: 2026-06-01 18:31In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: strparser: fix skb_head leak in strp_abort_strp()
When the stream parser is aborted, for example after a message assembly timeout, it can still hold a reference to a partially assembled message in strp->skb_head.
That skb is not released in strp_abort_strp(), which leaks the partially assembled message and can be triggered repeatedly to exhaust memory.
Fix this by freeing strp->skb_head and resetting the parser state in the abort path. Leave strp_stop() unchanged so final cleanup still happens in strp_done() after the work and timer have been synchronized.

Mitigation MIT-41
Strategy: Libraries or Frameworks
- Choose a language or tool that provides automatic memory management, or makes manual memory management less error-prone.
- For example, glibc in Linux provides protection against free of invalid pointers.
- When using Xcode to target OS X or iOS, enable automatic reference counting (ARC) [REF-391].
- To help correctly and consistently manage memory when programming in C++, consider using a smart pointer class such as std::auto_ptr (defined by ISO/IEC ISO/IEC 14882:2003), std::shared_ptr and std::unique_ptr (specified by an upcoming revision of the C++ standard, informally referred to as C++ 1x), or equivalent solutions such as Boost.
Mitigation
Use an abstraction library to abstract away risky APIs. Not a complete solution.
Mitigation
Consider using the Boehm-Demers-Weiser garbage collector (bdwgc), which can help avoid leaks.
