NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-uek64k-modules-wireless package and not the kernel-uek64k-modules-wireless package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

scsi: qedi: Fix a possible memory leak in qedi_alloc_and_init_sb()

Hook "qedi_ops->common->sb_init = qed_sb_init" does not release the DMA memory sb_virt when it fails. Add dma_free_coherent() to free it. This is the same way as qedr_alloc_mem_sb() and qede_alloc_mem_sb().
