Re: [PATCH 5.3 09/48] slip: Fix memory leak in slip_open error path

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

 



Hello Greg,

thanks for taking care of the slip.c patches.

The original issue was reported by Jouni for "slcan.c" which is also referenced in this commit message. But it was probably overlooked at upstream time that it should go into stable too.

The slcan.c fix is here:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=ed50e1600b4483c049ce76e6bd3b665a6a9300ed

Best regards,
Oliver

Driver/net/can/slcan.c is derived from slip.c. Memory leak was detected
by Syzkaller in slcan. Same issue exists in slip.c and this patch is
addressing the leak in slip.c.

Here is the slcan memory leak trace reported by Syzkaller:
