Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
The issue is related to a race condition in the Linux kernel's UDPv6 protocol implementation, specifically due to concurrent access to the dst entry structure without proper synchronization in the sk setup caps() function within the net/core/sock.c module. This could potentially allow an attacker to cause a denial of service.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
