CVE-2022-50658 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cpufreq: qcom: fix memory leak in error path If for some reason the speedbin length is incorrect, then there is a memory leak in the error path because we never free the speedbin buffer. This commit fixes the error path to always free the speedbin buffer.
A memory leak vulnerability has been identified in the Linux kernel's cpufreq component for Qualcomm processors. This issue arises when the speedbin length is incorrect, leading to a memory leak in the error handling process, as the speedbin buffer is not properly freed. The vulnerability is present in versions of the Linux kernel through 5.7.
Users can upgrade to the latest version of the Linux kernel where this vulnerability has been addressed.
