Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

comedi: Fix memory leak in compat_insnlist()

`compat_insnlist()` handles the 32-bit version of the `COMEDI_INSNLIST`
ioctl (whenwhen `CONFIG_COMPAT` is enabled). It allocates memory to
temporarily hold an array of `struct comedi_insn` converted from the
32-bit version in user space. This memory is only being freed if there
is a fault while filling the array, otherwise it is leaked.

Add a call to `kfree()` to fix the leak.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: comedi: Reparar pérdida de memoria en compat_insnlist() `compat_insnlist()` maneja la versión de 32 bits del ioctl `COMEDI_INSNLIST` (cuando `CONFIG_COMPAT` está habilitado). Asigna memoria para almacenar temporalmente una matriz de `struct comedi_insn` convertida desde la versión de 32 bits en el espacio de usuario. Esta memoria solo se libera si hay una falla al llenar la matriz; de lo contrario, se pierde. Agregue una llamada a `kfree()` para solucionar la fuga.
