CVE-2026-64145

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description A memory leak occurs in the wilc wlan firmware download() function when a bus acquire failure happens. The function allocates a dma buffer using kmalloc(), but an early error path uses a direct return instead of routing through the cleanup label, causing the allocated memory to be leaked.

Recommendations Replace the early return in the wilc wlan firmware download() function with a goto fail statement to ensure the dma buffer is properly freed via kfree().
