CVE-2021-47057
Last modified
CVE-2021-47057 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.5/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: crypto: sun8i-ss - Fix memory leak of object d when dma_iv fails to map In the case where the dma_iv mapping fails, the return error path leaks the memory allocated to object d. Fix this by adding a new error return label and jumping to this to ensure d is free'd before the return. Addresses-Coverity: ("Resource leak"). EPSS estimates a 0.22% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
