From: Xiaoming Ni <nixiaoming@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 8a4cd82d62b5ec7e5482333a72b58a4eea4979f0 upstream. nfc_llcp_local_get() is invoked in llcp_sock_connect(), but nfc_llcp_local_put() is not invoked in subsequent failure branches. As a result, refcount leakage occurs. To fix it, add calling nfc_llcp_local_put(). fix CVE-2020-25671 Fixes: c7aa12252f51 ("NFC: Take a reference on the LLCP local pointer when creating a socket") Reported-by: "kiyin(尹亮)" <kiyin@xxxxxxxxxxx> Link: https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2020/11/01/1 Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> #v3.6 Signed-off-by: Xiaoming Ni <nixiaoming@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
