No affected components available
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: staging: rtl8723bs: fix a potential memory leak in rtw_init_cmd_priv() In rtw_init_cmd_priv(), if pcmdpriv->rsp_allocated_buf is allocated in failure, then pcmdpriv->cmd_allocated_buf will be not properly released. Besides, considering there are only two error paths and the first one can directly return, so we do not need implicitly jump to the exit tag to execute the error handler. So this patch added kfree(pcmdpriv->cmd_allocated_buf); on the error path to release the resource and simplified the return logic of rtw_init_cmd_priv(). As there is no proper device to test with, no runtime testing was performed.
The vulnerability requires local access to the device to be exploited. It is easy for an attacker to exploit this vulnerability. An attacker needs basic access or low-level privileges. No user interaction is needed for the attacker to exploit this vulnerability. The impact is confined to the system where the vulnerability exists. There is a high impact on the availability of the system.
Exploitation attempts have been detected. Elevated vigilance and prompt remediation are advised.
Probability that this vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days.
We did not find any exploit available. Neither in GitHub repositories nor in the Exploit-Database.
