CVE-2024-57841 affecting package kernel for versions less than 5.15.176.3-1
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: fix memory leak in tcpconnrequest()

If inetcskreqskqueuehashadd() return false, tcpconnrequest() will return without free the dst memory, which allocated in afops->route_req.

Here is the kmemleak stack:
