We do that for the content of the 'issued' and 'submitted' lists,\nbut the 'current_tx' descriptor falls through the cracks as it's\nremoved from the 'issued' list once it gets assigned to be the current\ndescriptor. Explicitly queue up freeing of the 'current_tx' descriptor\nto address a memory leak that is otherwise present.","modified":"2026-08-12T03:51:31.861223431Z","published":"2025-12-30T12:08:57.226Z","database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"Linux","osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2023/54xxx/CVE-2023-54188.json"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b7abd535881a48587961c2099b1d2933ebd42c4b"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d9503be5a100c553731c0e8a82c7b4201e8a970c"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/fd4d88e68c75caf5c6f8293a36bc3ae289e0369e"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2023/54xxx/CVE-2023-54188.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-54188"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"b127315d9a78c011c011b88b92f650510edcfbd2"},{"fixed":"b7abd535881a48587961c2099b1d2933ebd42c4b"},{"fixed":"fd4d88e68c75caf5c6f8293a36bc3ae289e0369e"},{"fixed":"d9503be5a100c553731c0e8a82c7b4201e8a970c"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2023-54188.json"}},{"package":{"name":"Kernel","ecosystem":"Linux"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"6.0.0"},{"fixed":"6.1.25"}]},{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"6.2.0"},{"fixed":"6.2.12"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2023-54188.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
