From e0b0cb9388642c104838fac100a4af32745621e2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Navid Emamdoost Date: Mon, 30 Sep 2019 15:42:22 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] virt: vbox: fix memory leak in hgcm_call_preprocess_linaddr In hgcm_call_preprocess_linaddr memory is allocated for bounce_buf but is not released if copy_form_user fails. In order to prevent memory leak in case of failure, the assignment to bounce_buf_ret is moved before the error check. This way the allocated bounce_buf will be released by the caller.
