This CVE record has been updated after NVD enrichment efforts were completed. Enrichment data supplied by the NVD may require amendment due to these changes.
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: do not delay dst_entries_add() in dst_release()
dst_entries_add() uses per-cpu data that might be freed at netns
dismantle from ip6_route_net_exit() calling dst_entries_destroy()
Before ip6_route_net_exit() can be called, we release all
the dsts associated with this netns, via calls to dst_release(),
which waits an rcu grace period before calling dst_destroy()
dst_entries_add() use in dst_destroy() is racy, because
dst_entries_destroy() could have been called already.
Decrementing the number of dsts must happen sooner.
Notes:
1) in CONFIG_XFRM case, dst_destroy() can call
dst_release_immediate(child), this might also cause UAF
if the child does not have DST_NOCOUNT set.
IPSEC maintainers might take a look and see how to address this.
2) There is also discussion about removing this count of dst,
which might happen in future kernels.
