Answer in brief
CVE-2026-72087 records a Unknown severity vulnerability in scsi: lpfc: Fix memory leak in lpfc_sli4_driver_resource_setup(). The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. The current feed maps Linux/Linux (generic), Linux/Linux (generic). Check affected ranges and fixed versions before updating.
Analysis pending evidence review
HOL Guard separates source facts from reviewed analysis. See the methodology.
A CVSS score is not reported in the current record. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. Treat this as a source-backed prioritization signal, not a statement about your environment.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: lpfc: Fix memory leak in lpfc_sli4_driver_resource_setup() The memory allocated for mboxq using mempool_alloc() is not freed in some of the early exit error paths. Fix that by moving the mempool_free() call to an earlier point after last use.
