    Medium [CVE-2026-72270] fix potential memory leak in s3_pci_probe

    CVE-2026-72270Source published Source updated

Fix that by calling fb_destroy_modelist() A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's s3fb driver, which handles S3 graphics cards. This vulnerability involves a memory leak within the `s3_pci_probe()` function. When certain error conditions occur, memory allocated for display mode lists is not properly freed.
