[PATCH 5.0 316/346] audit: fix a memleak caused by auditing load module
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed May 29 2019 - 23:23:20 EST
[ Upstream commit 95e0b46fcebd7dbf6850dee96046e4c4ddc7f69c ]
module.name will be allocated unconditionally when auditing load
module, and audit_log_start() can fail with other reasons, or
audit_log_exit maybe not called, caused module.name is not freed
so free module.name in audit_free_context and __audit_syscall_exit
unreferenced object 0xffff88af90837d20 (size 8):
comm "modprobe", pid 1036, jiffies 4294704867 (age 3069.138s)
hex dump (first 8 bytes):
