In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fscrypt: fix keyring memory leak on mount failure
Commit d7e7b9af104c ("fscrypt: stop using keyrings subsystem for
fscrypt_master_key") moved the keyring destruction from __put_super() to
generic_shutdown_super() so that the filesystem's block device(s) are
still available. Unfortunately, this causes a memory leak in the case
where a mount is attempted with the test_dummy_encryption mount option,
but the mount fails after the option has already been processed.
To fix this, attempt the keyring destruction in both places. |
