In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: tun: Fix memory leaks of napi_get_frags
kmemleak reports after running test_progs:

The issue occurs in the following scenarios:
tun_get_user()
napi_gro_frags()
napi_frags_finish()
case GRO_NORMAL:
gro_normal_one()
list_add_tail(&skb->list, &napi->rx_list);
<-- While napi->rx_count < READ_ONCE(gro_normal_batch),
<-- gro_normal_list() is not called, napi->rx_list is not empty
<-- not ask to complete the gro work, will cause memory leaks in
<-- following tun_napi_del()
...
tun_napi_del()
netif_napi_del()
__netif_napi_del()
<-- &napi->rx_list is not empty, which caused memory leaks
To fix, add napi_complete() after napi_gro_frags().
