Description

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

spufs: fix a leak on spufs_new_file() failure

It's called from spufs_fill_dir(), and caller of that will do spufs_rmdir() in case of failure. That does remove everything we'd managed to create, but... the problem dentry is still negative. IOW, it needs to be explicitly dropped.

Mitigation

No mitigation is specified in collected source.
