CVE-2023-54131
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rt2x00: Fix memory leak when handling surveys
When removing a rt2x00 device, its associated channel surveys
are not freed, causing a memory leak observable with kmemleak:
unreferenced object 0xffff9620f0881a00 (size 512):
