Descriptions

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

kunit: fix reference count leak in kfree_at_end

The reference counting issue happens in the normal path of
kfree_at_end(). When kunit_alloc_and_get_resource() is invoked, the
function forgets to handle the returned resource object, whose refcount
increased inside, causing a refcount leak.

Fix this issue by calling kunit_alloc_resource() instead of
kunit_alloc_and_get_resource().

Fixed the following when applying:
Shuah Khan <skhan@linuxfoundation.org>

CHECK: Alignment should match open parenthesis
+ kunit_alloc_resource(test, NULL, kfree_res_free, GFP_KERNEL,
(void *)to_free);

En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: kunit: corrige la fuga del recuento de referencias en kfree_at_end El problema del recuento de referencias ocurre en la ruta normal de kfree_at_end(). Cuando se invoca kunit_alloc_and_get_resource(), la función se olvida de manejar el objeto de recurso devuelto, cuyo recuento aumentó en el interior, lo que provoca una fuga de recuento. Solucione este problema llamando a kunit_alloc_resource() en lugar de kunit_alloc_and_get_resource(). Se corrigió lo siguiente al aplicar: Shuah Khan VERIFICAR: La alineación debe coincidir con el paréntesis abierto + kunit_alloc_resource(test, NULL, kfree_res_free, GFP_KERNEL, (void *)to_free);
