| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to 6.6.43
Description
A memory leak issue has been resolved in the Linux kernel. The Audio PD daemon sends a name as part of the init IOCTL call, which needs to be copied to the kernel, allocating memory. However, this memory is never freed, potentially resulting in a memory leak. The issue has been fixed by freeing the memory when it is not needed.
Recommendations
Update to Linux kernel version 6.6.43 or later to resolve the issue.
