      <title>CVE-2026-80555 — s390/vfio_ccw: Free all memory if cp_init() fails</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-80555</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_ccw: Free all memory if cp_init() fails&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The routine cp_free() is called to unpin/free any memory once an I/O
is completed successfully, or if cp_prefetch() fails. But if cp_init()
fails, and cp-&amp;gt;initialized is not enabled, the same routine cannot be
used to free all the memory.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;An attempt to address this exists in ccwchain_handle_ccw(), where a
single call to ccwchain_free() is made for the currently-processed
CCW segment. But this will leak other segments (created as a result
of a Transfer in Channel) that had been allocated as part of the same
channel program.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Address this by performing the cleanup outside of the recursive
ccwchain_handle_ccw()/ccwchain_loop_tic() logic.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
