| Subject: CVE-2022-48706: vdpa: ifcvf: Do proper cleanup if IFCVF init fails |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| vdpa: ifcvf: Do proper cleanup if IFCVF init fails |
| |
| ifcvf_mgmt_dev leaks memory if it is not freed before |
| returning. Call is made to correct return statement |
| so memory does not leak. ifcvf_init_hw does not take |
| care of this so it is needed to do it here. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2022-48706 to this issue. |
| |
| |
| Affected and fixed versions |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
| https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5d2cc32c1c10bd889125d2adc16a6bc3338dcd3e |
