Action Type Old Value New Value Changed Description In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: s390/cpumf: Fix double free on error in cpumf_pmu_event_init() In PMU event initialization functions - cpumsf_pmu_event_init() - cpumf_pmu_event_init() - cfdiag_event_init() the partially created event had to be removed when an error was detected. The event::event_init() member function had to release all resources it allocated in case of error. event::destroy() had to be called on freeing an event after it was successfully created and event::event_init() returned success. With commit c70ca298036c ("perf/core: Simplify the perf_event_alloc() error path") this is not necessary anymore. The performance subsystem common code now always calls event::destroy() to clean up the allocated resources created during event initialization. Remove the event::destroy() invocation in PMU event initialization or that function is called twice for each event that runs into an error condition in event creation. This is the kernel log entry which shows up without the fix: ------------[ cut here ]------------ refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.
