[PATCH 4.19 040/252] wifi: ath9k: htc_hst: free skb in ath9k_htc_rx_msg() if there is no callback function

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

 



From: Fedor Pchelkin <pchelkin@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 9b25e3985477ac3f02eca5fc1e0cc6850a3f7e69 ]

It is stated that ath9k_htc_rx_msg() either frees the provided skb or
passes its management to another callback function. However, the skb is
not freed in case there is no another callback function, and Syzkaller was
able to cause a memory leak. Also minor comment fix.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Syzkaller.

Fixes: fb9987d0f748 ("ath9k_htc: Support for AR9271 chipset.")
