In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix memory leak in parseapplysbmountoptions()
If processing the on-disk mount options fails after any memory was allocated in the ext4fscontext, e.g. sqfnames, then this memory is leaked. Fix this by calling ext4fcfree() instead of kfree() directly.
Reproducer:
mkfs.ext4 -F /dev/vdc tune2fs /dev/vdc -E mount_opts=usrjquota=file echo clear > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak mount /dev/vdc /vdc echo scan > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak sleep 5 echo scan > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak cat /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak - References
