"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPICA: fix acpi operand cache leak in dswstate.c  ACPICA commit
987a3b5cf7175916e2a4b6ea5b8e70f830dfe732  I found an ACPI cache leak
in ACPI early termination and boot continuing case.  When early
termination occurs due to malicious ACPI table, Linux kernel
terminates ACPI function and continues to boot process. While kernel
terminates ACPI function, kmem_cache_destroy() reports Acpi-Operand
cache leak.  Boot log of ACPI operand cache leak is as follows: >[

Continue to boot and log is omitted ...  I analyzed this memory leak
in detail and found acpi_ds_obj_stack_pop_and_ delete() function
miscalculated the top of the stack. acpi_ds_obj_stack_push() function
uses walk_state->operand_index for start position of the top, but
acpi_ds_obj_stack_pop_and_delete() function considers index 0 for it.
Therefore, this causes acpi operand memory leak.  This cache leak
causes a security threat because an old kernel (<= 4.9) shows memory
locations of kernel functions in stack dump. Some malicious users
could use this information to neutralize kernel ASLR.  I made a patch
to fix ACPI operand cache leak.
