From a77d0a14ed4740fb4d9fe089dc1176a2eab012ff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vitaliy Shevtsov Date: Thu, 12 Jun 2025 21:35:18 +0500 Subject: [PATCH] scsi: elx: efct: Fix memory leak in efct_hw_parse_filter() [ Upstream commit 2a8a5a5dd06eef580f9818567773fd75057cb875 ] strsep() modifies the address of the pointer passed to it so that it no longer points to the original address. This means kfree() gets the wrong pointer. Fix this by passing unmodified pointer returned from kstrdup() to kfree(). Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Svace.
