[PATCH] ima/evm: Fix potential memory leak in ima_init_crypto()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



ima_init_crypto() allocates a memory chunk for "ima_algo_array" with
kcalloc(). When some errors occur, the function jumps to "out_array"
and releases the "ima_algo_array[i].tfm". But "ima_algo_array" is
not released, which will lead to a memory leak.

We can release the ima_algo_array with kfree() when some errors occur
to fix the memory leak.
