Descriptions
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ax25: Fix reference count leak issues of ax25_dev
The ax25_addr_ax25dev() and ax25_dev_device_down() exist a reference
count leak issue of the object "ax25_dev".
Memory leak issue in ax25_addr_ax25dev():
The reference count of the object "ax25_dev" can be increased multiple
times in ax25_addr_ax25dev(). This will cause a memory leak.
Memory leak issues in ax25_dev_device_down():
The reference count of ax25_dev is set to 1 in ax25_dev_device_up() and
then increase the reference count when ax25_dev is added to ax25_dev_list.
As a result, the reference count of ax25_dev is 2. But when the device is
shutting down. The ax25_dev_device_down() drops the reference count once
or twice depending on if we goto unlock_put or not, which will cause
memory leak.
As for the issue of ax25_addr_ax25dev(), it is impossible for one pointer
to be on a list twice. So add a break in ax25_addr_ax25dev(). As for the
issue of ax25_dev_device_down(), increase the reference count of ax25_dev
once in ax25_dev_device_up() and decrease the reference count of ax25_dev
after it is removed from the ax25_dev_list.
En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: ax25: soluciona problemas de pérdida de recuento de referencias de ax25_dev. Ax25_addr_ax25dev() y ax25_dev_device_down() existen un problema de pérdida de recuento de referencias del objeto "ax25_dev". Problema de pérdida de memoria en ax25_addr_ax25dev(): el recuento de referencias del objeto "ax25_dev" se puede aumentar varias veces en ax25_addr_ax25dev(). Esto provocará una pérdida de memoria. Problemas de pérdida de memoria en ax25_dev_device_down(): el recuento de referencias de ax25_dev se establece en 1 en ax25_dev_device_up() y luego aumenta el recuento de referencias cuando se agrega ax25_dev a ax25_dev_list. Como resultado, el recuento de referencia de ax25_dev es 2. Pero cuando el dispositivo se está apagando. El ax25_dev_device_down() reduce el recuento de referencias una o dos veces dependiendo de si vamos a unlock_put o no, lo que provocará una pérdida de memoria. En cuanto al problema de ax25_addr_ax25dev(), es imposible que un puntero esté en una lista dos veces. Entonces agregue una interrupción en ax25_addr_ax25dev(). En cuanto al problema de ax25_dev_device_down(), aumente el recuento de referencias de ax25_dev una vez en ax25_dev_device_up() y disminuya el recuento de referencias de ax25_dev después de que se elimine de ax25_dev_list.
