[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [PATCH] x86/mce: Fix buggy error path in cpu_bank_alloc() leading to UAF
When cleaning up from a mcabanks_alloc() failure, the memory is freed but
stale pointers are left in the percpu variables.
Use cpu_bank_free() which is idempotent and behaves correctly.
Fixes: 2e6c8f182c9c ("x86: distinguish CPU offlining from CPU removal")

2e6c8f182c9c updated the success path but missed the associated error path.
Prior to that, the paths were at least consistent since their introduction in
commit 78c579426fb5 ("x86/MCE: Implement clearbank callback for AMD").
