In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: af_unix: fix struct pid leaks in OOB support syzbot reported struct pid leak [1]. Issue is that queue_oob() calls maybe_add_creds() which potentially holds a reference on a pid. But skb->destructor is not set (either directly or by calling unix_scm_to_skb()) This means that subsequent kfree_skb() or consume_skb() would leak this reference. In this fix, I chose to fully support scm even for the OOB message.

Отчет
A memory leak in the AF_UNIX OOB message handling was fixed in queue_oob(). When SCM credentials were attached to an OOB message, a missing call to unix_scm_to_skb() resulted in leaked struct pid references, as skb->destructor was not set. The issue was reported by Syzbot and required a process to send OOB messages with SCM credentials. Local attackers with the ability to create UNIX domain sockets and send OOB messages can trigger a kernel memory leak.
