Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description A memory leak exists in the tracing/remotes component. When page allocation fails within the trace remote alloc buffer() function, the desc->nr cpus variable is not incremented for the current CPU. This prevents the trace remote free buffer() function from freeing the partially allocated rb desc during an error state.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
