commit db803036ada7 ("umh: fix memory leak on execve failure")
category: bugfix
bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I8J9MA
CVE: NA
-------------------------------------------------
If a UMH process created by fork_usermode_blob() fails to execute,
a pair of struct file allocated by umh_pipe_setup() will leak.
Under normal conditions, the caller (like bpfilter) needs to manage the
lifetime of the UMH and its two pipes. But when fork_usermode_blob()
fails, the caller doesn't really have a way to know what needs to be
done. It seems better to do the cleanup ourselves in this case.
Fixes: 449325b52b7a ("umh: introduce fork_usermode_blob() helper")
