Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: nvidia: fix potential memory leak in nvidiafb_probe()
In nvidiafb_probe(), the memory allocated for modelist in
nvidia_set_fbinfo() is not freed in the subsequent error paths.
Fix that by calling fb_destroy_modelist().
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's NVIDIA framebuffer driver. During the initialization process within the nvidiafb_probe() function, if certain error conditions occur, memory allocated for internal data structures is not properly released. This can lead to a memory leak, potentially affecting system stability and performance over extended periods.
