"The version of kernel installed on the remote Azure Linux 3.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore,
affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2024-56664 advisory.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf, sockmap: Fix race between element
    replace and close() Element replace (with a socket different from the one stored) May race with socket's
    close() link popping & unlinking. __sock_map_delete() unconditionally unrefs the (wrong) element: // set
    map[0] = s0 map_update_elem(map, 0, s0) // drop fd of s0 close(s0) sock_map_close() lock_sock(sk) (s0!)
    sock_map_remove_links(sk) link = sk_psock_link_pop() sock_map_unlink(sk, link) sock_map_delete_from_link
    // replace map[0] with s1 map_update_elem(map, 0, s1) sock_map_update_elem (s1!) lock_sock(sk)
    sock_map_update_common psock = sk_psock(sk) spin_lock(&stab->lock) osk = stab->sks[idx]
    sock_map_add_link(..., &stab->sks[idx]) sock_map_unref(osk, &stab->sks[idx]) psock = sk_psock(osk)
    sk_psock_put(sk, psock) if (refcount_dec_and_test(&psock)) sk_psock_drop(sk, psock)
    spin_unlock(&stab->lock) unlock_sock(sk) __sock_map_delete spin_lock(&stab->lock) sk = *psk // s1 replaced
    s0; sk == s1 if (!sk_test || sk_test == sk) // sk_test (s0) != sk (s1); no branch sk = xchg(psk, NULL) if
    (sk) sock_map_unref(sk, psk) // unref s1; sks[idx] will dangle psock = sk_psock(sk) sk_psock_put(sk,
    psock) if (refcount_dec_and_test()) sk_psock_drop(sk, psock) spin_unlock(&stab->lock) release_sock(sk)
    Then close(map) enqueues bpf_map_free_deferred, which finally calls sock_map_free(). This results in some
    refcount_t warnings along with a KASAN splat [1]. Fix __sock_map_delete(), do not allow sock_map_unref()
    on elements that May have been replaced. [1]: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in sock_map_free+0x10e/0x330
