      <title>CVE-2023-53720 — net/mlx5e: Release the label when replacing existing ct entry</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2023-53720</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;net/mlx5e: Release the label when replacing existing ct entry&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cited commit doesn&amp;#39;t release the label mapping when replacing existing ct
entry which leads to following memleak report:&lt;/p&gt;
