Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description A potential memory leak in the performance extension of the Linux kernel's drm/v3d component has been resolved. The issue occurs when fetching of userspace memory fails during the main loop, causing all drm sync objs looked up until that point to be leaked due to the missing drm syncobj put. This is fixed by exporting and using a common cleanup helper.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
