CVE-2021-3764 is a memory-leak vulnerability in the Linux kernel AMD CCP cryptographic driver. In ccp_run_aes_gcm_cmd(), an error returned by ccp_init_data(&src) can leave previously allocated resources unreleased. Repeatedly triggering this error path consumes kernel memory and can exhaust available resources. The issue is related to prior CCP resource-leak flaws, including CVE-2019-18808 and CVE-2021-3744.
