    <title>CVE-2022-49837 — bpf: Fix memory leaks in __check_func_call</title>

      <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><p><strong>Affected:</strong> Linux</p>
<p>In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:</p>
<p>bpf: Fix memory leaks in __check_func_call</p>
<p>kmemleak reports this issue:</p>
<p>unreferenced object 0xffff88817139d000 (size 2048):
  comm "test_progs", pid 33246, jiffies 4307381979 (age 45851.820s)

<p>The root case here is: In function prepare_func_exit(), the callee is
not released in the abnormal scenario after "state-&gt;curframe--;". To
fix, move "state-&gt;curframe--;" to the very bottom of the function,
right when we free callee and reset frame[] pointer to NULL, as Andrii
suggested.</p>
<p>In addition, function __check_func_call() has a similar problem. In
the abnormal scenario before "state-&gt;curframe++;", the callee also
should be released by free_func_state().</p></div>
