This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled staging: ccree: fix leak of import() after init() to my staging git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git in the staging-linus branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From c5f39d07860c35e5e4c63188139465af790f86ce Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gilad Ben-Yossef <gilad@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 9 Nov 2017 09:16:09 +0000 Subject: staging: ccree: fix leak of import() after init() crypto_ahash_import() may be called either after crypto_ahash_init() or without such call. Right now we always internally call init() as part of import(), thus leaking memory and mappings if the user has already called init() herself. Fix this by only calling init() internally if the state is not already initialized.
