In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/slub: fix to return errno if kmalloc() fails
In create_unique_id(), kmalloc(, GFP_KERNEL) can fail due to out-of-memory, if it fails, return errno correctly rather than triggering panic via BUG_ON();
kernel BUG at mm/slub.c:5893! Internal error: Oops - BUG: 0 [#1] PREEMPT SMP
