A memory leak vulnerability has been identified in the Linux kernel's Landlock sample, specifically within the path list management. The issue arises in the 'sandboxer.c' file, where the 'path_list' variable is allocated memory in the 'parse_path()' function but is never properly freed, leading to a potential memory leak.
Exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to a memory leak, where allocated memory is not released, potentially causing increased memory usage and degradation of system performance over time.
Our algorithm analyzes dozens of metrics to generate these 8 key vulnerability categories, which are then combined to calculate the overall risk score.
