NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-abi-stablelists package and not the kernel-abi-stablelists package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

net/mlx5: DR, fix memory leak in mlx5dr_cmd_create_reformat_ctx

when mlx5_cmd_exec failed in mlx5dr_cmd_create_reformat_ctx, the memory pointed by 'in' is not released, which will cause memory leak. Move memory release after mlx5_cmd_exec.
