Summary

In the Linux kernel rust_binder driver, the freeze listener is not cleared on node removal when the user does not do it explicitly. This can lead to a memory leak due to a reference cycle.

Risk Assessment

The vulnerability can lead to memory leaks in the binder driver, potentially exhausting system resources.

Recommendation

Apply the Linux kernel patch that clears the freeze listener on node removal.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rust_binder: clear freeze listener on node removal Generally userspace is supposed to explicitly clear freeze listeners before they drop the refcount on the node ref to zero, but there's nothing forcing that. Currently, in this scenario the freeze listener remains in the freeze_listeners rbtree and in the remote node's freeze listener list, even though the ref for which the listener is registered is gone. This could potentially lead to a memory leak due to a refcount cycle. Thus, remove the freeze listener in this scenario.
