Miller" <davem@...emloft.net> Subject: [PATCH 4.19 059/131] net: netrom: Fix potential nr_neigh refcnt leak in nr_add_node From: Xiyu Yang <xiyuyang19@...an.edu.cn> [ Upstream commit d03f228470a8c0a22b774d1f8d47071e0de4f6dd ] nr_add_node() invokes nr_neigh_get_dev(), which returns a local reference of the nr_neigh object to "nr_neigh" with increased refcnt. When nr_add_node() returns, "nr_neigh" becomes invalid, so the refcount should be decreased to keep refcount balanced. The issue happens in one normal path of nr_add_node(), which forgets to decrease the refcnt increased by nr_neigh_get_dev() and causes a refcnt leak. It should decrease the refcnt before the function returns like other normal paths do. Fix this issue by calling nr_neigh_put() before the nr_add_node() returns.
