Original description

The description as published by the source.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: s390: Fix old_data leak in guest debug error path __import_wp_info() allocates a per-watchpoint old_data buffer to back up the original guest memory contents. If a later watchpoint of the same KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG request fails to import, kvm_s390_import_bp_data() jumps to the error label, which frees the wp_info array but not the old_data buffers of the entries that were imported successfully. Up to MAX_BP_COUNT - 1 buffers of up to MAX_WP_SIZE bytes are leaked per failed request, and the request can be repeated. Create error handling for cleaning up all created old_data memory areas.
