Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
A use after free issue has been resolved in the Linux kernel. The issue occurs in the
emac mac tx buf send function, which calls emac tx fill tpd(..,skb,..). If an error happens in emac tx fill tpd(), the skb will be freed via dev kfree skb(skb) in the error branch of emac tx fill tpd(). However, the freed skb is still used via skb->len by netdev sent queue(,skb->len). To fix this issue, the patch assigns skb->len to 'len' before the possible free and uses 'len' instead of skb->len later.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
