Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-07-25 15:30 – Updated: 2025-12-15 18:30In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mtd: spinand: fix memory leak of ECC engine conf
Memory allocated for the ECC engine conf is not released during spinand cleanup. Below kmemleak trace is seen for this memory leak:

Fix the leak by calling nanddev_ecc_engine_cleanup() inside spinand_cleanup().
