Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: memstick/ms_block: Fix a memory leak 'erased_blocks_bitmap' is never freed. As it is allocated at the same time as 'used_blocks_bitmap', it is likely that it should be freed also at the same time. Add the corresponding bitmap_free() in msb_data_clear().

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 3.12 < 4.14.291) • linux linux kernel (>= 4.15 < 4.19.256) • linux linux kernel (>= 4.20 < 5.4.211) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.5 < 5.10.137) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.11 < 5.15.61) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.16 < 5.18.18) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.19 < 5.19.2)
