[ Upstream commit 70c4cf17 ] In audit_rule_change(), audit_data_to_entry() is firstly invoked to translate the payload data to the kernel's rule representation. In audit_data_to_entry(), depending on the audit field type, an audit tree may be created in audit_make_tree(), which eventually invokes kmalloc() to allocate the tree. Since this tree is a temporary tree, it will be then freed in the following execution, e.g., audit_add_rule() if the message type is AUDIT_ADD_RULE or audit_del_rule() if the message type is AUDIT_DEL_RULE. However, if the message type is neither AUDIT_ADD_RULE nor AUDIT_DEL_RULE, i.e., the default case of the switch statement, this temporary tree is not freed. To fix this issue, only allocate the tree when the type is AUDIT_ADD_RULE or AUDIT_DEL_RULE.
