Summary

In the Linux kernel intel/tpmi driver, the mem_write() function did not release the temporary array returned by parse_int_array_user() on all exit paths. The fix uses cleanup.h scope-based cleanup to free it automatically.

Risk Assessment

Memory leak can lead to exhaustion of system resources and performance degradation.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: platform/x86/intel/tpmi: use cleanup helpers in mem_write() In mem_write(), the temporary array returned by parse_int_array_user() must be released on all exit paths. Convert the array variable to use cleanup.h scope-based cleanup so it is freed automatically on return. This also moves the array declaration next to parse_int_array_user() as required by cleanup.h usage guidelines.
