CVE-2026-3104 1 Isc 1 Bind 2026-09-01 N/A 7.5 HIGH
A specially crafted domain can be used to cause a memory leak in a BIND resolver simply by querying this domain. This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.20.0 through 9.20.20, 9.21.0 through 9.21.19, and 9.20.9-S1 through 9.20.20-S1. BIND 9 versions 9.18.0 through 9.18.46 and 9.18.11-S1 through 9.18.46-S1 are NOT affected.
CVE-2026-1757 2026-09-01 N/A 6.2 MEDIUM
A flaw was identified in the interactive shell of the xmllint utility, part of the libxml2 project, where memory allocated for user input is not properly released under certain conditions. When a user submits input consisting only of whitespace, the program skips command execution but fails to free the allocated buffer. Repeating this action causes memory to continuously accumulate. Over time, this can exhaust system memory and terminate the xmllint process, creating a denial-of-service condition on the local system.
CVE-2026-54876 2026-08-28 N/A 7.5 HIGH
Issue summary: A malicious TLS server can cause a memory leak in a TLS client that has enabled OCSP response checking by sending an OCSP response that contains no single response entries. Impact summary: An attacker can leak an attacker-tunable amount of memory per TLS handshake in a victim client application. A long-running client that repeatedly connects to a malicious server can have its memory exhausted, resulting in a Denial of Service. CWE: CWE-401: Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime Description: The affected function is called during X.509 certificate chain verification when OCSP response checking is enabled with the X509_V_FLAG_OCSP_RESP_CHECK or X509_V_FLAG_OCSP_RESP_CHECK_ALL verification flags, for example when a TLS client verifies an OCSP response stapled into the TLS handshake by the server. When the received BasicOCSPResponse contains an empty SEQUENCE OF SingleResponse, which is permitted on the wire and accepted by the OpenSSL decoder, the OCSP_BASICRESP structure allocated by OCSP_response_get1_basic() was not freed because an early return bypassed the cleanup code at the end of the function. The amount of memory leaked per handshake can be amplified by the attacker by padding the certs field of the BasicOCSPResponse with bogus certificates, which are parsed and stored in the leaked structure before the empty response check triggers the early return. A long-running TLS client that repeatedly connects to a malicious server can have its memory exhausted over time. OCSP response checking is not enabled by default. Only client applications that explicitly enable the OCSP response check verification flags are affected. FIPS impact: no The FIPS modules in 4.0 and 3.6 are not affected by this issue as the affected code is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary.
CVE-2026-1605 1 Eclipse 1 Jetty 2026-08-27 N/A 7.5 HIGH
In Eclipse Jetty, versions 12.0.0-12.0.31 and 12.1.0-12.0.5, class GzipHandler exposes a vulnerability when a compressed HTTP request, with Content-Encoding: gzip, is processed and the corresponding response is not compressed. This happens because the JDK Inflater is allocated for decompressing the request, but it is not released because the release mechanism is tied to the compressed response. In this case, since the response is not compressed, the release mechanism does not trigger, causing the leak.
CVE-2021-47644 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-26 N/A 5.5 MEDIUM
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: staging: media: zoran: move videodev alloc Move some code out of zr36057_init() and create new functions for handling zr->video_dev. This permit to ease code reading and fix a zr->video_dev memory leak.
CVE-2026-76235 2026-08-25 N/A 7.5 HIGH
A memory leak flaw was found in cockpit-ws. The login page handler leaks a heap allocation on every unauthenticated request that carries a CockpitLang cookie, allowing a remote unauthenticated attacker to exhaust memory on the host and cause a denial of service.
CVE-2026-64139 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-23 N/A 5.5 MEDIUM
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: fix SID memory leak in set_posix_acl_entries_dacl() on overflow Commit 299f962c0b02 ("ksmbd: use check_add_overflow() to prevent u16 DACL size overflow") added check_add_overflow() guards that break out of the ACE-building loops in set_posix_acl_entries_dacl() when the accumulated DACL size would wrap past 65535. However, each iteration allocates a struct smb_sid via kmalloc_obj() at the top of the loop and relies on the kfree(sid) call at the end of the loop body (the 'pass_same_sid' label in the first loop, and the explicit kfree at the tail of the second loop) to release it. The newly introduced 'break' statements bypass those kfree() calls, leaking the sid buffer every time an overflow is detected. A malicious or malformed file with enough POSIX ACL entries to trip the overflow check will leak one or more struct smb_sid allocations on every request that touches the file's DACL, providing a trivial kernel memory exhaustion vector. Free sid before breaking out of the loops to plug the leak.
CVE-2025-23160 2 Debian, Linux 2 Debian Linux, Linux Kernel 2026-08-23 N/A 5.5 MEDIUM
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: mediatek: vcodec: Fix a resource leak related to the scp device in FW initialization On Mediatek devices with a system companion processor (SCP) the mtk_scp structure has to be removed explicitly to avoid a resource leak. Free the structure in case the allocation of the firmware structure fails during the firmware initialization.
CVE-2026-21714 1 Nodejs 1 Node.js 2026-08-19 N/A 5.3 MEDIUM
A memory leak occurs in Node.js HTTP/2 servers when a client sends WINDOW_UPDATE frames on stream 0 (connection-level) that cause the flow control window to exceed the maximum value of 2³¹-1. The server correctly sends a GOAWAY frame, but the Http2Session object is never cleaned up. This vulnerability affects HTTP2 users on Node.js 20, 22, 24 and 25.
CVE-2026-53365 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-18 N/A 5.5 MEDIUM
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vsock/virtio: fix zerocopy completion for multi-skb sends When a large message is fragmented into multiple skbs, the zerocopy uarg is only allocated and attached to the last skb in the loop. Non-final skbs carry pinned user pages with no completion tracking, so the kernel has no way to notify userspace when those pages are safe to reuse. If the loop breaks early the uarg is never allocated at all, leaking pinned pages with no completion notification. Fix this by following the approach used by TCP: allocate the zerocopy uarg (if not provided by the caller) before the send loop and attach it to every skb via skb_zcopy_set(), which takes a reference per skb. Each skb's completion properly decrements the refcount, and the notification only fires after the last skb is freed. On failure, if no data was sent, the uarg is cleanly aborted via net_zcopy_put_abort(). This issue was initially discovered by sashiko while reviewing commit 1cb36e252211 ("vsock/virtio: fix MSG_ZEROCOPY pinned-pages accounting") but was pre-existing.
CVE-2026-64147 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-17 N/A 5.5 MEDIUM
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pds_core: fix debugfs_lookup dentry leak and error handling debugfs_lookup() returns a dentry with an elevated reference count that must be released with dput(). The current code discards the returned dentry without calling dput(), causing a reference leak on every firmware reset recovery. Additionally, when CONFIG_DEBUG_FS is disabled, debugfs_lookup() returns ERR_PTR(-ENODEV), not NULL. The current check passes for error pointers and would call dput() on an invalid pointer, causing a crash.
CVE-2026-64155 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-17 N/A 5.5 MEDIUM
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ath11k: fix error path leaks in some WMI WOW calls Fix two instances where we used to directly return the result of ath11k_wmi_cmd_send(...). Because we did not check the return value, we also did not free the skb in the error path.
CVE-2026-64292 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-17 N/A 5.5 MEDIUM
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommufd: Move vevent memory allocation outside spinlock The veventq memory allocation happens inside the spinlock. Given its depth is decided by the user space, this leaves a vulnerability, where userspace can allocate large queues to exhaust atomic memory reserves. Move the allocation outside the spinlock and use GFP_NOWAIT, which can fail fast under memory pressure without dipping into the GFP_ATOMIC reserves or direct-reclaiming from the threaded IRQ handler. On allocation failure, queue the lost_events_header (so userspace learns of the drop) and return -ENOMEM so the caller learns of the kernel-side memory pressure. This is intentionally distinct from the queue-overflow path, which also queues the lost_events_header but returns 0: a full queue is an expected userspace-pacing condition rather than a kernel error. A subsequent change will cap the upper bound of the veventq_depth.
CVE-2026-63798 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-17 N/A 5.5 MEDIUM
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: irqchip/imgpdc: Fix resource leak, add missing chained handler cleanup on remove The driver allocates domain generic chips using irq_alloc_domain_generic_chips() during probe and sets up chained handlers using irq_set_chained_handler_and_data(). However, on driver removal, the generic chips are not freed and the chained handlers are not removed. The generic chips remain on the global gc_list and may later be accessed by generic interrupt chip suspend, resume, or shutdown callbacks after the driver has been removed, potentially resulting in a use-after-free and kernel crash. The chained handlers that were installed in probe for peripheral and syswake interrupts are also left dangling, which can lead to spurious interrupts accessing freed memory. Fix these issues by: - Setting IRQ_DOMAIN_FLAG_DESTROY_GC flag in domain->flags, so the core code automatically removes generic chips when irq_domain_remove() is called - Clearing all chained handlers with NULL in pdc_intc_remove()
CVE-2026-53396 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-17 N/A 7.1 HIGH
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: fix posix_acl leak and ignored error in nfsd4_create_file nfsd4_create_file() has two bugs in its ACL handling: The return value of nfsd4_acl_to_attr() is silently discarded. When the NFSv4-to-POSIX ACL conversion fails (e.g., -EINVAL for unsupported ACE types), the file is created without any ACL and the client receives NFS4_OK. This violates RFC 7530/8881 which require the server to reject unsupported attributes on CREATE. When start_creating() fails after ACL attributes have been populated in attrs (either via nfsd4_acl_to_attr or via ownership transfer from open->op_dpacl/op_pacl), the function jumps to out_write which skips nfsd_attrs_free(). The posix_acl allocations are leaked. A client can trigger this repeatedly with OPEN(CREATE), ACL attributes, and an invalid filename (e.g., longer than NAME_MAX). Fix both by capturing the nfsd4_acl_to_attr() return value and by changing the early error paths to jump to out instead of out_write. Initialize child to ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) so that end_creating() is safe to call even if start_creating() was never reached.

CVE-2022-50451 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-15 N/A 5.5 MEDIUM
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fs/ntfs3: Fix memory leak on ntfs_fill_super() error path syzbot reported kmemleak as below: BUG: memory leak unreferenced object 0xffff8880122f1540 (size 32): comm "a.out", pid 6664, jiffies 4294939771 (age 25.500s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ed ff ed ff 00 00 00 00 ................ backtrace: [<ffffffff81b16052>] ntfs_init_fs_context+0x22/0x1c0 [<ffffffff8164aaa7>] alloc_fs_context+0x217/0x430 [<ffffffff81626dd4>] path_mount+0x704/0x1080 [<ffffffff81627e7c>] __x64_sys_mount+0x18c/0x1d0 [<ffffffff84593e14>] do_syscall_64+0x34/0xb0 [<ffffffff84600087>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd This patch fixes this issue by freeing mount options on error path of ntfs_fill_super().
CVE-2022-50420 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-15 N/A 5.5 MEDIUM
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: crypto: hisilicon/hpre - fix resource leak in remove process In hpre_remove(), when the disable operation of qm sriov failed, the following logic should continue to be executed to release the remaining resources that have been allocated, instead of returning directly, otherwise there will be resource leakage.
CVE-2022-50418 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-15 N/A 5.5 MEDIUM
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ath11k: mhi: fix potential memory leak in ath11k_mhi_register() mhi_alloc_controller() allocates a memory space for mhi_ctrl. When gets some error, mhi_ctrl should be freed with mhi_free_controller(). But when ath11k_mhi_read_addr_from_dt() fails, the function returns without calling mhi_free_controller(), which will lead to a memory leak. We can fix it by calling mhi_free_controller() when ath11k_mhi_read_addr_from_dt() fails.
CVE-2022-50376 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-15 N/A 5.5 MEDIUM
