In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: clean untagged VLAN on netdev registration failure
When an mesh interface is registered, it creates an untagged struct
batadv_meshif_vlan on top of it via the NETDEV_REGISTER notifier. But in
this process, another receiver of this notification can veto the
registration. The netdev registration will be aborted because of this veto.
The register_netdevice() call will try to clean up the net_device using
unregister_netdevice_queue() - which only uses the .priv_destructor to
free private resources. In this situation, .dellink will not be called.
The cleanup of the untagged batadv_meshif_vlan must thefore be done in the
destructor to avoid a leak of this object.
