Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
A memory leak issue has been identified in the Linux kernel, specifically in the nfcmrvl module. The problem arises from the handling of deferred transmission urbs, where usb submit urb is called directly, causing usb giveback urb bh to fail in unreferring the urb in usb unanchor urb. This results in a memory leak. The issue is similar to a previously fixed memory leak in the Bluetooth module.
Recommendations
To resolve the issue, put the deferred transmission urbs in tx anchor to avoid the memory leak, and also fix the error handling.
