This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled mISDN: Fix memory leak in dsp_pipeline_build() to the 5.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: misdn-fix-memory-leak-in-dsp_pipeline_build.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit e2f498597d61cb09264d18d47eed0fd1b34da28a Author: Alexey Khoroshilov <khoroshilov@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Mar 4 21:25:36 2022 +0300 mISDN: Fix memory leak in dsp_pipeline_build() [ Upstream commit c6a502c2299941c8326d029cfc8a3bc8a4607ad5 ] dsp_pipeline_build() allocates dup pointer by kstrdup(cfg), but then it updates dup variable by strsep(&dup, "|"). As a result when it calls kfree(dup), the dup variable contains NULL. Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
