In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
binder: fix memleak of proc->delivered_freeze
If a freeze notification is cleared with BC_CLEAR_FREEZE_NOTIFICATION
before calling binder_freeze_notification_done(), then it is detached
from its reference (e.g. ref->freeze) but the work remains queued in
proc->delivered_freeze. This leads to a memory leak when the process
exits as any pending entries in proc->delivered_freeze are not freed:
unreferenced object 0xffff38e8cfa36180 (size 64):

This patch fixes the leak by ensuring that any pending entries in
proc->delivered_freeze are freed during binder_deferred_release().
