CVE-2022-49209
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, sockmap: Fix memleak in tcp_bpf_sendmsg while sk msg is full
If tcp_bpf_sendmsg() is running while sk msg is full. When sk_msg_alloc() returns -ENOMEM error, tcp_bpf_sendmsg() goes to wait_for_memory. If partial memory has been alloced by sk_msg_alloc(), that is, msg_tx->sg.size is greater than osize after sk_msg_alloc(), memleak occurs. To fix we use sk_msg_trim() to release the allocated memory, then goto wait for memory.
Other call paths of sk_msg_alloc() have the similar issue, such as tls_sw_sendmsg(), so handle sk_msg_trim logic inside sk_msg_alloc(), as Cong Wang suggested.

Si sk_msg_alloc() ha asignado memoria parcial, es decir, msg_tx->sg.size es mayor que osize después de sk_msg_alloc(), se produce una pérdida de memoria. Para solucionarlo, utilizamos sk_msg_trim() para liberar la memoria asignada y luego vamos a esperar memoria.
