Описание

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mtd: slram: remove failed entries from the device list register_device() links a new slram_mtdlist entry before allocating all of the state needed by the entry. If a later allocation, memremap(), or mtd_device_register() fails, the partially initialized entry remains on the global list. A later cleanup can then dereference or free invalid state from that failed entry. Unwind the partially initialized entry and clear the list tail on each failure path after the entry has been linked.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Memory Technology Device (MTD) subsystem, specifically within the slram module. When register_device() fails during the allocation of a new slram_mtdlist entry, a partially initialized entry can remain on the global device list. A subsequent cleanup operation may then attempt to dereference or free invalid memory, potentially leading to memory corruption or a system crash (Denial of Service).
