From: Tung Nguyen <tung.quang.nguyen@est.tech> stable inclusion from stable-v6.6.88 commit 09c2dcda2c551bba30710c33f6ac678ae7395389 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/IC5BL5 CVE: CVE-2025-37757 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit 69ae94725f4fc9e75219d2d69022029c5b24bc9a ] In case the backlog transmit queue for system-importance messages is overloaded, tipc_link_xmit() returns -ENOBUFS but the skb list is not purged. This leads to memory leak and failure when a skb is allocated. This commit fixes this issue by purging the skb list before tipc_link_xmit() returns.
