      <title>CVE-2023-53746 — s390/vfio-ap: fix memory leak in vfio_ap device driver</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2023-53746</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;s390/vfio-ap: fix memory leak in vfio_ap device driver&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The device release callback function invoked to release the matrix device
uses the dev_get_drvdata(device *dev) function to retrieve the
pointer to the vfio_matrix_dev object in order to free its storage. The
problem is, this object is not stored as drvdata with the device; since the
kfree function will accept a NULL pointer, the memory for the
vfio_matrix_dev object is never freed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Since the device being released is contained within the vfio_matrix_dev
object, the container_of macro will be used to retrieve its pointer.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
