Common Weakness Enumeration

CWE-401

Allowed

Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime

Abstraction: Variant · Status: Draft

The product does not sufficiently track and release allocated memory after it has been used, making the memory unavailable for reallocation and reuse.

2014 vulnerabilities reference this CWE, most recent first.

Summary
ImageMagick has memory leak of watermark Image object in ReadSTEGANOImage on multiple error/early-return paths
Details

Summary

In ReadSTEGANOImage() (coders/stegano.c), the watermark Image object is not freed on three early-return paths, resulting in a definite memory leak (~13.5KB+ per invocation) that can be exploited for denial of service.

Direct leak of 13512 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:

Details

dhcpcd through 10.3.2, fixed in commit 708b4a5, contains a memory leak vulnerability in the IPv6 Router Advertisement route information handling that allows an unauthenticated same-link attacker to cause denial of service by sending crafted Router Advertisements. Attackers can repeatedly send Router Advertisements containing Route Information options with a lifetime of zero, triggering unfreed allocations in routeinfo_findalloc() that cause linear memory exhaustion and eventual daemon crash.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-01-14 15:33 – Updated: 2026-07-14 15:31
VLAI
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

via_wdt: fix critical boot hang due to unnamed resource allocation

The VIA watchdog driver uses allocate_resource() to reserve a MMIO region for the watchdog control register. However, the allocated resource was not given a name, which causes the kernel resource tree to contain an entry marked as "" under /proc/iomem on x86 platforms.

During boot, this unnamed resource can lead to a critical hang because subsequent resource lookups and conflict checks fail to handle the invalid entry properly.

Mitigation MIT-41
Implementation

Strategy: Libraries or Frameworks

  • Choose a language or tool that provides automatic memory management, or makes manual memory management less error-prone.
  • For example, glibc in Linux provides protection against free of invalid pointers.
  • When using Xcode to target OS X or iOS, enable automatic reference counting (ARC) [REF-391].
  • To help correctly and consistently manage memory when programming in C++, consider using a smart pointer class such as std::auto_ptr (defined by ISO/IEC ISO/IEC 14882:2003), std::shared_ptr and std::unique_ptr (specified by an upcoming revision of the C++ standard, informally referred to as C++ 1x), or equivalent solutions such as Boost.
Mitigation
Architecture and Design

Use an abstraction library to abstract away risky APIs. Not a complete solution.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design Build and Compilation

Consider using the Boehm-Demers-Weiser garbage collector (bdwgc), which can help avoid leaks.
