commit 9b6ff7eb666415e1558f1ba8a742f5db6a9954de upstream. The reference count leak issue may take place in an error handling path. If both conditions of tunnel->version == L2TP_HDR_VER_3 and the return value of l2tp_v3_ensure_opt_in_linear is nonzero, the function would directly jump to label invalid, without decrementing the reference count of the l2tp_session object session increased earlier by l2tp_tunnel_get_session(). This may result in refcount leaks. Fix this issue by decrease the reference count before jumping to the label invalid.

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.
