[ Upstream commit f35d12971b4d814cdb2f659d76b42f0c545270b6 ] x25_lapb_receive_frame() invokes x25_get_neigh(), which returns a reference of the specified x25_neigh object to "nb" with increased refcnt. When x25_lapb_receive_frame() returns, local variable "nb" becomes invalid, so the refcount should be decreased to keep refcount balanced. The reference counting issue happens in one path of x25_lapb_receive_frame(). When pskb_may_pull() returns false, the function forgets to decrease the refcnt increased by x25_get_neigh(), causing a refcnt leak. Fix this issue by calling x25_neigh_put() when pskb_may_pull() returns false.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
