Overview
About vulnerability
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix potential memory leak in ext4_fc_record_modified_inode()
As krealloc may return NULL, in this case ‘state->fc_modified_inodes’ may not be freed by krealloc, but ‘state->fc_modified_inodes’ already set NULL. Then will lead to ‘state->fc_modified_inodes’ memory leak.
Details
- Affected product:
- AlmaLinux 9.2 ESU , TuxCare 9.6 ESU
