Résumé

padata: do not leak refcount in reorder_work

Description d'origine

La description telle que publiée par la source (souvent en anglais).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

padata: do not leak refcount in reorder_work

A recent patch that addressed a UAF introduced a reference count leak:
the parallel_data refcount is incremented unconditionally, regardless
of the return value of queue_work(). If the work item is already queued,
the incremented refcount is never decremented.

Fix this by checking the return value of queue_work() and decrementing
the refcount when necessary.
