Description

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) driver. This vulnerability occurs due to a leak in the Direct Memory Access (DMA) mapping during data setup operations. Specifically, the system fails to properly unmap DMA resources when there are errors in allocating tracking descriptors for Physical Region Pages (PRP) and Scatter-Gather Lists (SGL), or when an invalid bio_vec is detected during PRP mapping. This can lead to resource exhaustion over time.
