Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/damon/sysfs: cleanup attrs subdirs on context dir setup failure When a context DAMON sysfs directory setup is failed after setup of attrs/ directory, subdirectories of attrs/ directory are not cleaned up. As a result, DAMON sysfs interface is nearly broken until the system reboots, and the memory for the unremoved directory is leaked. Cleanup the directories under such failures.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 5.18 < 6.1.162) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.2 < 6.6.122) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.7 < 6.12.67) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.13 < 6.18.7) • linux linux kernel 6.19
