Memory Leak in Linux Kernel's Slicing Configuration Management
CVE-2023-53350
What is CVE-2023-53350?
A memory leak vulnerability has been identified in the Linux kernel related to the handling of slicing configuration data. The temporary buffer, which stores user-defined slicing parameters, remains allocated and is only released under error conditions, leading to an unintentional retention of memory. This flaw necessitates careful management of memory resources to prevent degradation of system performance. A patch has been implemented to ensure that the buffer is freed unconditionally, thereby mitigating the risk associated with this vulnerability.
