      "value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet: batman-adv: fix error handling\n\nSyzbot reported ODEBUG warning in batadv_nc_mesh_free(). The problem was\nin wrong error handling in batadv_mesh_init().\n\nBefore this patch batadv_mesh_init() was calling batadv_mesh_free() in case\nof any batadv_*_init() calls failure. This approach may work well, when\nthere is some kind of indicator, which can tell which parts of batadv are\ninitialized; but there isn't any.\n\nAll written above lead to cleaning up uninitialized fields. Even if we hide\nODEBUG warning by initializing bat_priv->nc.work, syzbot was able to hit\nGPF in batadv_nc_purge_paths(), because hash pointer in still NULL. [1]\n\nTo fix these bugs we can unwind batadv_*_init() calls one by one.\nIt is good approach for 2 reasons: 1) It fixes bugs on error handling\npath 2) It improves the performance, since we won't call unneeded\nbatadv_*_free() functions.\n\nSo, this patch makes all batadv_*_init() clean up all allocated memory\nbefore returning with an error to no call correspoing batadv_*_free()\nand open-codes batadv_mesh_free() with proper order to avoid touching\nuninitialized fields."

      "value": "En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: net: batman-adv: correcci\u00f3n de manejo de errores Syzbot inform\u00f3 advertencia ODEBUG en batadv_nc_mesh_free(). El problema estaba en el manejo incorrecto de errores en batadv_mesh_init(). Antes de este parche, batadv_mesh_init() llamaba a batadv_mesh_free() en caso de que fallara alguna llamada a batadv_*_init(). Este enfoque puede funcionar bien cuando hay alg\u00fan tipo de indicador que puede indicar qu\u00e9 partes de batadv est\u00e1n inicializadas; pero no hay ninguno. Todo lo escrito anteriormente conduce a la sanitizaci\u00f3n de campos no inicializados. Incluso si ocultamos la advertencia ODEBUG inicializando bat_priv->nc.work, syzbot pudo presionar GPF en batadv_nc_purge_paths(), porque el puntero hash todav\u00eda es NULL. [1] Para corregir estos errores podemos desenredar las llamadas batadv_*_init() una por una. Es un buen enfoque por 2 razones: 1) Corrige errores en la ruta de manejo de errores 2) Mejora el rendimiento, ya que no llamaremos a funciones batadv_*_free() innecesarias. Entonces, este parche hace que batadv_*_init() limpie toda la memoria asignada antes de regresar con un error de no llamada correspondiente a batadv_*_free() y c\u00f3digos abiertos batadv_mesh_free() con el orden adecuado para evitar tocar campos no inicializados."
