Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: txgbe: fix memory leak in txgbeprobe() error path When txgbeswinit() is called, memory is allocated for wx->rsskey in wxinitrsskey(). However, in txgbeprobe() function, the subsequent error paths after txgbeswinit() don't free the rsskey. Fix that by freeing it in error path along with wx->mactable. Also change the label to which execution jumps when txgbeswinit() fails, because otherwise, it could lead to a double free for rsskey, when the mactable allocation fails in wxswinit().
