[PATCH 4.19 234/243] crypto: user - fix memory leak in crypto_report

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

 



From: Navid Emamdoost <navid.emamdoost@xxxxxxxxx>

commit ffdde5932042600c6807d46c1550b28b0db6a3bc upstream.

In crypto_report, a new skb is created via nlmsg_new(). This skb should
be released if crypto_report_alg() fails.

Fixes: a38f7907b926 ("crypto: Add userspace configuration API")
