  "summary": "btrfs: fix leak of kobject name for sub-group space_info",
  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nbtrfs: fix leak of kobject name for sub-group space_info\n\nWhen create_space_info_sub_group() allocates elements of\nspace_info->sub_group[], kobject_init_and_add() is called for each\nelement via btrfs_sysfs_add_space_info_type(). However, when\ncheck_removing_space_info() frees these elements, it does not call\nbtrfs_sysfs_remove_space_info() on them. As a result, kobject_put() is\nnot called and the associated kobj->name objects are leaked.\n\nThis memory leak is reproduced by running the blktests test case\nzbd/009 on kernels built with CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK. The kmemleak\nfeature reports the following error:\n\nunreferenced object 0xffff888112877d40 (size 16):\n  comm \"mount\", pid 1244, jiffies 4294996972\n  hex dump (first 16 bytes):\n    64 61 74 61 2d 72 65 6c 6f 63 00 c4 c6 a7 cb 7f  data-reloc......\n  backtrace (crc 53ffde4d):\n    __kmalloc_node_track_caller_noprof+0x619/0x870\n    kstrdup+0x42/0xc0\n    kobject_set_name_vargs+0x44/0x110\n    kobject_init_and_add+0xcf/0x150\n    btrfs_sysfs_add_space_info_type+0xfc/0x210 [btrfs]\n    create_space_info_sub_group.constprop.0+0xfb/0x1b0 [btrfs]\n    create_space_info+0x211/0x320 [btrfs]\n    btrfs_init_space_info+0x15a/0x1b0 [btrfs]\n    open_ctree+0x33c7/0x4a50 [btrfs]\n    btrfs_get_tree.cold+0x9f/0x1ee [btrfs]\n    vfs_get_tree+0x87/0x2f0\n    vfs_cmd_create+0xbd/0x280\n    __do_sys_fsconfig+0x3df/0x990\n    do_syscall_64+0x136/0x1540\n    entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7e\n\nTo avoid the leak, call btrfs_sysfs_remove_space_info() instead of\nkfree() for the elements.",
