NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-uek-modules-usb package and not the kernel-uek-modules-usb package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

hugetlbfs: release subpool on fill_super failure

hugetlbfs_fill_super() allocates a hugepage subpool when size or min_size mount options are specified. hugepage_new_subpool() may also reserve huge pages for min_size.

If root dentry creation fails after the subpool is created, the failure path frees the subpool with kfree(). This bypasses hugepage_put_subpool() and can leave min_size reservations charged.

Use hugepage_put_subpool() on the failure path, matching the normal put_super path.
