[PATCH 4.9 089/199] crypto: user - fix memory leak in crypto_report
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Dec 19 2019 - 13:47:00 EST
From: Navid Emamdoost <navid.emamdoost@xxxxxxxxx>
commit ffdde5932042600c6807d46c1550b28b0db6a3bc upstream.
In crypto_report, a new skb is created via nlmsg_new(). This skb should
be released if crypto_report_alg() fails.
Fixes: a38f7907b926 ("crypto: Add userspace configuration API")
