This misses devlink instances that get a nested\nrelation before registration and then fail probe before devl_register() is\nreached.\n\nThat flow can happen for SFs. The child devlink gets linked to its\nparent before registration, then a later probe error calls devlink_free()\ndirectly. Since the instance was never registered, devl_unregister() is not\ncalled and devlink->rel is leaked.\n\nRelease any pending relation from devlink_free() as well. The registered\npath is unchanged because devl_unregister() already clears devlink->rel\nbefore devlink_free() runs."}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["net/devlink/core.c"], "versions": [{"version": "c137743bce02b18c1537d4681aa515f7b80bf0a8", "lessThan": "a9137286884703113b1c9e6403bd6d7d97b14754", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "c137743bce02b18c1537d4681aa515f7b80bf0a8", "lessThan": "927f96861f939c0b517d13ed27bf4fabbfc1cfb3", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "c137743bce02b18c1537d4681aa515f7b80bf0a8", "lessThan": "11324d52b0c63f4f202b35793c6507a575e9a689", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "c137743bce02b18c1537d4681aa515f7b80bf0a8", "lessThan": "3522b21fd7e1863d0734537737bd59f1b90d0190", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}]}, {"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["net/devlink/core.c"], "versions": [{"version": "6.7", "status": "affected"}, {"version": "0", "lessThan": "6.7", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.12.94", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.18.36", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.0.13", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.0.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.1", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix"}]}], "cpeApplicability": [{"nodes": [{"operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.7", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.94"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.7", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.36"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.7", "versionEndExcluding": "7.0.13"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.7", "versionEndExcluding": "7.1"}]}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a9137286884703113b1c9e6403bd6d7d97b14754"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/927f96861f939c0b517d13ed27bf4fabbfc1cfb3"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/11324d52b0c63f4f202b35793c6507a575e9a689"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3522b21fd7e1863d0734537737bd59f1b90d0190"}], "title": "devlink: Release nested relation on devlink free", "x_generator": {"engine": "bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
