Message-ID: <2024102115-CVE-2024-47755-2cb3@gregkh> Date: Mon, 21 Oct 2024 14:16:34 +0200 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> To: linux-cve-announce@...r.kernel.org Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> Subject: CVE-2024-47755: nvdimm: Fix devs leaks in scan_labels() Description =========== In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nvdimm: Fix devs leaks in scan_labels() scan_labels() leaks memory when label scanning fails and it falls back to just creating a default "seed" namespace for userspace to configure. Root can force the kernel to leak memory. Allocate the minimum resources unconditionally and release them when unneeded to avoid the memory leak.

Unaffected versions might change over time as fixes are backported to older supported kernel versions. The official CVE entry at https://cve.org/CVERecord/?id=CVE-2024-47755 will be updated if fixes are backported, please check that for the most up to date information about this issue. Affected files ============== The file(s) affected by this issue are: drivers/nvdimm/namespace_devs.c Mitigation ========== The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this issue can be found at these commits: https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/45db20bdb5695d06478d35e05fb2550441bed890 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/18a672c62d735744c6340eb3f5e58934a5d34cf2 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/939053737edb49ba5bdc5846acb45f11d15b7ab4 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/cdf0dfb3d183bbe0d0b6a6622c53d105074ad384 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/62c2aa6b1f565d2fc1ec11a6e9e8336ce37a6426
