CVE-2025-39679
Estado: AnalizadaMedia (5.5)—
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/nouveau/nvif: Fix potential memory leak in nvif_vmm_ctor().
When the nvif_vmm_type is invalid, we will return error directly without freeing the args in nvif_vmm_ctor(), which leading a memory leak. Fix it by setting the ret -EINVAL and goto done.
