**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Linux kernel (affected versions not specified) **Description** A memory leak has been identified in the Linux kernel, specifically in the trusted key module. The issue arises from two error return paths that fail to free the allocated object `td`, resulting in a memory leak. This leak is addressed by ensuring that the error return path securely frees `td`. The fix also resolves a clang scan-build warning related to a potential memory leak in the `trusted tpm1.c` file. **Recommendations** At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
