Vulnerability from gsd

Details
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
virtiofs: fix memory leak in virtio_fs_probe()
When accidentally passing twice the same tag to qemu, kmemleak ended up
reporting a memory leak in virtiofs. Also, looking at the log I saw the
following error (that's when I realised the duplicated tag):
virtiofs: probe of virtio5 failed with error -17
Here's the kmemleak log for reference:
unreferenced object 0xffff888103d47800 (size 1024):
comm "systemd-udevd", pid 118, jiffies 4294893780 (age 18.340s)
hex dump (first 32 bytes):
