CVE-2022-49926

Estado: ModificadaMedia (5.5)—

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

net: dsa: Fix possible memory leaks in dsa_loop_init()

kmemleak reported memory leaks in dsa_loop_init():

kmemleak: 12 new suspected memory leaks

There are two reasons for memleak in dsa_loop_init().

First, fixed_phy_register() create and register phy_device:

But fixed_phy_unregister() only calls phy_device_remove(). So the memory allocated in phy_device_create() is leaked.

Second, when mdio_driver_register() fail in dsa_loop_init(), it just returns and there is no cleanup for phydevs.

Fix the problems by catching the error of mdio_driver_register() in dsa_loop_init(), then calling both fixed_phy_unregister() and phy_device_free() to release phydevs. Also add a function for phydevs cleanup to avoid duplacate.
