      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nwifi: libertas: fix memory leak in helper_firmware_cb()\n\nhelper_firmware_cb() neglects to free the single-stage firmware image\nafter a successful async load, leading to a memory leak in the USB\nfirmware-download path.\n\nFix this memory leak by calling release_firmware() immediately after\nlbs_fw_loaded() returns.\n\nThe bug was first flagged by an experimental analysis tool we are\ndeveloping for kernel memory-management bugs while analyzing\nv6.13-rc1. The tool is still under development and is not yet publicly\navailable. Manual inspection confirms that the bug is still present in\nthe current wireless tree.\n\nAn x86_64 allyesconfig build showed no new warnings. As we do not have\ncompatible Libertas USB hardware for exercising this firmware-download\npath, no runtime testing was able to be performed.",
