Published May 19, 2024
·
Updated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

scsi: lpfc: Fix possible memory leak in lpfcrcvpadisc()

The call to lpfcsli4resumerpi() in lpfcrcvpadisc() may return an unsuccessful status. In such cases, the elsiocb is not issued, the completion is not called, and thus the elsiocb resource is leaked.

Check return value after calling lpfcsli4resumerpi() and conditionally release the elsiocb resource.
