Synopsis
The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.Description
The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.- fbdev: smscufx: fix error handling code in ufx_usb_probe The current error handling code in ufx_usb_probe have many unmatching issues, e.g., missing ufx_free_usb_list, destroy_modedb label should only include framebuffer_release, fb_dealloc_cmap only matches fb_alloc_cmap. My local syzkaller reports a memory leak bug: memory leak in ufx_usb_probe BUG: memory leak unreferenced object 0xffff88802f879580 (size 128): comm kworker/0:7, pid 17416, jiffies 4295067474 (age 46.710s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 80 21 7c 2e 80 88 ff ff 18 d0 d0 0c 80 88 ff ff .!|............. 00 d0 d0 0c 80 88 ff ff e0 ff ff ff 0f 00 00 00 ................ backtrace: [<ffffffff814c99a0>] kmalloc_trace+0x20/0x90 mm/slab_common.c:1045 [<ffffffff824d219c>] kmalloc include/linux/slab.h:553 [inline] [<ffffffff824d219c>] kzalloc include/linux/slab.h:689 [inline] [<ffffffff824d219c>] ufx_alloc_urb_list drivers/video/fbdev/smscufx.c:1873 [inline] [<ffffffff824d219c>] ufx_usb_probe+0x11c/0x15a0 drivers/video/fbdev/smscufx.c:1655 [<ffffffff82d17927>] usb_probe_interface+0x177/0x370 drivers/usb/core/driver.c:396 [<ffffffff82712f0d>] call_driver_probe drivers/base/dd.c:560 [inline] [<ffffffff82712f0d>] really_probe+0x12d/0x390 drivers/base/dd.c:639 [<ffffffff8271322f>]
