NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-livepatch-4_12_14-197_29-default package and not the kernel-livepatch-4_12_14-197_29-default package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.1 relevant fixed versions and status.

Two memory leaks in the mwifiex_pcie_init_evt_ring() function in drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/pcie.c in the Linux kernel through 5.3.11 allow attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering mwifiex_map_pci_memory() failures, aka CID-d10dcb615c8e.
