      <title>CVE-2022-50355 — staging: vt6655: fix some erroneous memory clean-up loops</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2022-50355</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;staging: vt6655: fix some erroneous memory clean-up loops&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In some initialization functions of this driver, memory is allocated with
&amp;#39;i&amp;#39; acting as an index variable and increasing from 0. The commit in
&amp;#34;Fixes&amp;#34; introduces some clean-up codes in case of allocation failure,
which free memory in reverse order with &amp;#39;i&amp;#39; decreasing to 0. However,
there are some problems:
  - The case i=0 is left out. Thus memory is leaked.
  - In case memory allocation fails right from the start, the memory
    freeing loops will start with i=-1 and invalid memory locations will
    be accessed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;One of these loops has been fixed in commit c8ff91535880 (&amp;#34;staging:
vt6655: fix potential memory leak&amp;#34;). Fix the remaining erroneous loops.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
