Linux · Linux Kernel · CVE-2022-49028
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
**Description**
A resource leak issue has been resolved in the Linux kernel. The `ixgbevf init module()` function did not destroy the workqueue created by `create singlethread workqueue()` when `pci register driver()` failed. To prevent the resource leak, `destroy workqueue()` was added in the fail path. This issue is similar to the handling of `u132 hcd init` in commit `f276e002793c` ("usb: u132-hcd: fix resource leak").
**Recommendations**
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
