CVE-2024-44980
Description
From CVE.org
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/xe: Fix opregion leak Being part o the display, ideally the setup and cleanup would be done by display itself. However this is a bigger refactor that needs to be done on both i915 and xe. For now, just fix the leak: unreferenced object 0xffff8881a0300008 (size 192): comm "modprobe", pid 4354, jiffies 4295647021 hex dump (first 32 bytes): 00 00 87 27 81 88 ff ff 18 80 9b 00 00 c9 ff ff ...'............ 18 81 9b 00 00 c9 ff ff 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ backtrace (crc 99260e31): [<ffffffff823ce65b>] kmemleak_alloc+0x4b/0x80 [<ffffffff81493be2>] kmalloc_trace_noprof+0x312/0x3d0 [<ffffffffa1345679>] intel_opregion_setup+0x89/0x700 [xe] [<ffffffffa125bfaf>] xe_display_init_noirq+0x2f/0x90 [xe] [<ffffffffa1199ec3>] xe_device_probe+0x7a3/0xbf0 [xe] [<ffffffffa11f3713>] xe_pci_probe+0x333/0x5b0 [xe] [<ffffffff81af6be8>] local_pci_probe+0x48/0xb0 [<ffffffff81af8778>] pci_device_probe+0xc8/0x280 [<ffffffff81d09048>] really_probe+0xf8/0x390 [<ffffffff81d0937a>] __driver_probe_device+0x8a/0x170 [<ffffffff81d09503>] driver_probe_device+0x23/0xb0 [<ffffffff81d097b7>] __driver_attach+0xc7/0x190 [<ffffffff81d0628d>] bus_for_each_dev+0x7d/0xd0 [<ffffffff81d0851e>] driver_attach+0x1e/0x30 [<ffffffff81d07ac7>] bus_add_driver+0x117/0x250 (cherry picked from commit 6f4e43a2f771b737d991142ec4f6d4b7ff31fbb4)
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.
CVSS v3 Score Breakdown

Understanding the Weakness (CWE)
Availability
Technical Impact: DoS: Crash, Exit, or Restart; DoS: Instability; DoS: Resource Consumption (CPU); DoS: Resource Consumption (Memory)
Most memory leaks result in general product reliability problems, but if an attacker can intentionally trigger a memory leak, the attacker might be able to launch a denial of service attack (by crashing or hanging the program) or take advantage of other unexpected program behavior resulting from a low memory condition.

Technical Impact: Reduce Performance
