Summary

In the Linux kernel, the mt76 WiFi driver (model mt7921) has a resource leak in the probe error path. When pcim_iomap_region() or devm_kmemdup() fails, the code returns directly without cleaning up previously allocated resources, such as mt76_device and PCI IRQ vectors.

Risk Assessment

Resource leaks can lead to memory or system resource exhaustion, potentially affecting system stability, especially with repeated device initialization attempts.

Recommendation

Apply the kernel patch that jumps to the existing error cleanup path instead of returning directly.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: mt7921: fix resource leak in probe error path When pcim_iomap_region() or devm_kmemdup() fail, the code returns directly without cleaning up previously allocated resources: - mt76_device allocated by mt76_alloc_device() - pci irq vectors allocated by pci_alloc_irq_vectors() Fix this by jumping to the existing error cleanup path instead of returning directly.
