Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: r8712: Fix memory leak in _r8712_init_xmit_priv()
In the above mentioned routine, memory is allocated in several places.
If the first succeeds and a later one fails, the routine will leak memory.
This patch fixes commit 2865d42c78a9 ("staging: r8712u: Add the new driver
to the mainline kernel"). A potential memory leak in
r8712_xmit_resource_alloc() is also addressed.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's r8712 driver. This memory leak vulnerability occurs when certain memory allocations fail during the initialization of transmit private data. A local user could potentially exploit this flaw, leading to a denial of service by exhausting system memory.
