Memory Leak Vulnerability in Linux Kernel USB Component
CVE-2023-53415
What is CVE-2023-53415?
A memory leak vulnerability has been identified in the USB driver component of the Linux kernel. The issue arises when the function debugfs_lookup() is called without appropriate memory management, leading to an accumulation of unreleased memory. To mitigate this issue, it is recommended to use debugfs_lookup_and_remove(), which simplifies the process by ensuring that all necessary memory cleanup is handled simultaneously. Further updates to the kernel are essential to maintain optimal memory utilization and system performance.
