Description
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's lan966x network driver. This vulnerability, a page pool leak, occurs when certain error paths in the lan966x_fdma_rx_alloc() and lan966x_fdma_init() functions fail to properly destroy allocated page pools. This oversight can lead to a gradual depletion of system memory resources, potentially resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS) condition where the system becomes unresponsive or crashes.
