CVE-2022-49996

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

btrfs: fix possible memory leak in btrfs_get_dev_args_from_path()

In btrfs_get_dev_args_from_path(), btrfs_get_bdev_and_sb() can fail if
the path is invalid. In this case, btrfs_get_dev_args_from_path()
returns directly without freeing args->uuid and args->fsid allocated
before, which causes memory leak.

To fix these possible leaks, when btrfs_get_bdev_and_sb() fails,
btrfs_put_dev_args_from_path() is called to clean up the memory.

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.
