Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description:
The issue is related to the
devlink init() function in the Linux kernel, which is associated with the reuse of previously freed memory. This could allow an attacker to cause a denial of service. The problem arises because the pernet operations structure for the subsystem must be registered before registering the generic netlink family. In case of unsuccessful registration, an unregister operation should be performed.Recommendations:
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
