Subject: [PATCH bpf 1/1] bpf: Fix insn_aux_data leak on verifier err_free_env path
Date: Wed, 24 Jun 2026 20:35:35 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260624123536.114757-1-kafai.wan@linux.dev> (raw)

When bpf_check() allocates env->insn_aux_data successfully but later
fails to allocate env->succ, it jumps directly to err_free_env.

The existing vfree(env->insn_aux_data) sits before the err_free_env
label, so that direct jump bypasses it and leaks insn_aux_data.

Move vfree(env->insn_aux_data) into err_free_env so all early and late
exit paths release it consistently.

Fixes: 2f69c5685427 ("bpf: make bpf_insn_successors to return a pointer")
