In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: dvb-usb: fix memory leak in dvb_usb_adapter_init()
Syzbot reports a memory leak in "dvb_usb_adapter_init()". The leak is due to not accounting for and freeing current iteration's adapter->priv in case of an error. Currently if an error occurs, it will exit before incrementing "num_adapters_initalized", which is used as a reference counter to free all adap->priv in "dvb_usb_adapter_exit()". There are multiple error paths that can exit from before incrementing the counter. Including the error handling paths for "dvb_usb_adapter_stream_init()", "dvb_usb_adapter_dvb_init()" and "dvb_usb_adapter_frontend_init()" within "dvb_usb_adapter_init()".
This means that in case of an error in any of these functions the current iteration is not accounted for and the current iteration's adap->priv is not freed.
Fix this by freeing the current iteration's adap->priv in the "stream_init_err:" label in the error path. The rest
