CVE-2024-41066

CVSS v2.0

7.5

High

VectorAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description The issue is related to the ibmvnic driver in the Linux kernel, where a memory leak could occur due to the lack of a check to ensure that the skb address is null. This could cause tcp congestion control to stop sending packets, eventually leading to ETIMEDOUT. The driver has been updated to add a conditional check to prevent this issue.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
