If the subsequent allocation for inst->codec_info\nfails, the functions return -ENOMEM without freeing the previously\nallocated instance, causing a memory leak.\n\nFix this by calling kfree() on the instance in this error path to ensure\nit is properly released.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":5.5},"cwes":["CWE-401"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1de71556cbd6e1d0d26fb86b9b3bb8caa0df8495","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/32e9e45cf7e3422d21fa64535588d3572faf71c3","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/52defdd4034db1a34bb48006f889d66a3629224b","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a519e21e32398459ba357e67b541402f7295ee1b"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:36:28.938604137+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-45928","score":0.00128,"percentile":0.02414,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
