Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
udmabuf: fix memory leak on last export_udmabuf() error path
In export_udmabuf(), if dma_buf_fd() fails because the FD table is full, a
dma_buf owning the udmabuf has already been created; but the error handling
in udmabuf_create() will tear down the udmabuf without doing anything about
the containing dma_buf.
This leaves a dma_buf in memory that contains a dangling pointer; though
that doesn't seem to lead to anything bad except a memory leak.
Fix it by moving the dma_buf_fd() call out of export_udmabuf() so that we
can give it different error handling.
Note that the shape of this code changed a lot in commit 5e72b2b41a21
("udmabuf: convert udmabuf driver to use folios"); but the memory leak
seems to have existed since the introduction of udmabuf.
