In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipmi:ssif: Fix a memory leak when scanning for an adapter
The adapter scan ssif_info_find() sets info->adapter_name if the adapter
info came from SMBIOS, as it's not set in that case. However, this
function can be called more than once, and it will leak the adapter name
if it had already been set. So check for NULL before setting it.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) SSIF module. A local user can exploit this vulnerability by repeatedly calling the ssif_info_find() function. This improper handling of memory allocation leads to a memory leak, which can result in a Denial of Service (DoS) due to system resource exhaustion.
