In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: s3fb: fix potential memory leak in s3_pci_probe()
In s3_pci_probe(), the memory allocated for modelist using
fb_videomode_to_modelist() is not freed in subsequent error paths.
Fix that by calling fb_destroy_modelist()
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's s3fb driver, which handles S3 graphics cards. This vulnerability involves a memory leak within the s3_pci_probe() function. When certain error conditions occur, memory allocated for display mode lists is not properly freed. This oversight could allow an attacker to gradually consume system memory, potentially leading to a denial of service (DoS) by making the system unstable or unresponsive.
