Description
An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.6. svm_cpu_uninit in arch/x86/kvm/svm.c has a memory leak, aka CID-d80b64ff297e. NOTE: third parties dispute this issue because it's a one-time leak at the boot, the size is negligible, and it can't be triggered at will
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A memory leak in svm_cpu_init() is possible leading to a system crash. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
