The switch port connect path stores\nthat device in mac->mc_dev and keeps it for the lifetime of the connected\nMAC object.\n\nHowever, the disconnect path only closes the MAC and frees the dpaa2_mac\nobject. It does not drop the endpoint device reference stored in\nmac->mc_dev, so every successful connect leaks that device reference when\nthe MAC is later disconnected.\n\nDrop the endpoint device reference before freeing the dpaa2_mac object."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/dpaa2/dpaa2-switch.c"],"versions":[{"version":"84cba72956fddf29ba666f885c39ed147024c125","lessThan":"196f7301537814bef0f5915f87cd73d6d1235c19","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"84cba72956fddf29ba666f885c39ed147024c125","lessThan":"0e9a6811eb6198ab17538cd01fa155d133b238ed","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"84cba72956fddf29ba666f885c39ed147024c125","lessThan":"1f4ca61b7a93de3dfa5161bcd38ecb99bb091c38","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"84cba72956fddf29ba666f885c39ed147024c125","lessThan":"680eecc850d36a280df9780496bc603fec17b2d6","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"84cba72956fddf29ba666f885c39ed147024c125","lessThan":"26ac2d3602347f0377fbcd5214bc28a9d735ae68","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"84cba72956fddf29ba666f885c39ed147024c125","lessThan":"c27694ff6748e08fcd2fdba89018439d75b8198f","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"84cba72956fddf29ba666f885c39ed147024c125","lessThan":"4c1eabbef7a1707635652e956e39db1269c3af2b","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/dpaa2/dpaa2-switch.c"],"versions":[{"version":"5.15","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"5.15","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.15.216","lessThanOrEqual":"5.15.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.183","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.148","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.101","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.42","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.1.6","lessThanOrEqual":"7.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.15","versionEndExcluding":"5.15.216"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.15","versionEndExcluding":"6.1.183"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.15","versionEndExcluding":"6.6.148"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.15","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.101"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.15","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.42"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.15","versionEndExcluding":"7.1.6"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.15","versionEndExcluding":"7.2"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/196f7301537814bef0f5915f87cd73d6d1235c19"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0e9a6811eb6198ab17538cd01fa155d133b238ed"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1f4ca61b7a93de3dfa5161bcd38ecb99bb091c38"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/680eecc850d36a280df9780496bc603fec17b2d6"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/26ac2d3602347f0377fbcd5214bc28a9d735ae68"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c27694ff6748e08fcd2fdba89018439d75b8198f"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4c1eabbef7a1707635652e956e39db1269c3af2b"}],"title":"dpaa2-switch: put MAC endpoint device on disconnect","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
