CVE-2022-49276

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

jffs2: fix memory leak in jffs2_scan_medium

If an error is returned in jffs2_scan_eraseblock() and some memory
has been added to the jffs2_summary *s, we can observe the following
kmemleak report:

--------------------------------------------

Therefore, we should call jffs2_sum_reset_collected(s) on exit to
release the memory added in s. In addition, a new tag "out_buf" is
added to prevent the NULL pointer reference caused by s being NULL.

CWE-401 Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime

The product does not sufficiently track and release allocated memory after it has been used, which slowly consumes remaining memory.
