In llcp_sock_connect(), use kmemdup to allocate memory for "llcp_sock->service_name". The memory is not released in the sock_unlink label of the subsequent failure branch. As a result, memory leakage occurs. fix CVE-2020-25672 Fixes: d646960f7986 ("NFC: Initial LLCP support") Reported-by: "kiyin(尹亮)" <kiyin@xxxxxxxxxxx> Link: https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2020/11/01/1 Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> #v3.3 Signed-off-by: Xiaoming Ni <nixiaoming@xxxxxxxxxx> --- net/nfc/llcp_sock.c | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) diff --git a/net/nfc/llcp_sock.c b/net/nfc/llcp_sock.c index 9e2799ee1595..59172614b249 100644 --- a/net/nfc/llcp_sock.c +++ b/net/nfc/llcp_sock.c @@ -746,6 +746,8 @@ static int llcp_sock_connect(struct socket *sock, struct sockaddr *_addr, sock_unlink: nfc_llcp_sock_unlink(&local->connecting_sockets, sk); + kfree(llcp_sock->service_name); + llcp_sock->service_name = NULL; sock_llcp_release: nfc_llcp_put_ssap(local, llcp_sock->ssap); -- 2.27.0
