CVE-2022-49784
Estado: AnalizadaMedia (5.5)—
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf/x86/amd/uncore: Fix memory leak for events array
When a CPU comes online, the per-CPU NB and LLC uncore contexts are freed but not the events array within the context structure. This causes a memory leak as identified by the kmemleak detector.
Fix the problem by freeing the events array before freeing the uncore context.
