Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-24 17:13 – Updated: 2022-05-24 17:13The kernel memory usage represented as "temp" via 'show system virtual-memory' may constantly increase when Integrated Routing and Bridging (IRB) is configured with multiple underlay physical interfaces, and one interface flaps.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-05-27 15:33 – Updated: 2026-06-16 03:30In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: au1200fb: Fix a memory leak in au1200fb_drv_probe()
In au1200fb_drv_probe(), when platform_get_irq fails(), it directly returns from the function with an error code, which causes a memory leak.
Replace it with a goto label to ensure proper cleanup.

Mitigation MIT-41
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
Use an abstraction library to abstract away risky APIs. Not a complete solution.
Mitigation
Consider using the Boehm-Demers-Weiser garbage collector (bdwgc), which can help avoid leaks.
