"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
aoe: fix the potential use-after-free problem in more places For
fixing CVE-2023-6270, f98364e92662 (aoe: fix the potential use-after-
free problem in aoecmd_cfg_pkts) makes tx() calling dev_put() instead
of doing in aoecmd_cfg_pkts(). It avoids that the tx() runs into use-
after-free. Then Nicolai Stange found more places in aoe have
potential use-after-free problem with tx(). e.g. revalidate(),
aoecmd_ata_rw(), resend(), probe() and aoecmd_cfg_rsp(). Those
functions also use aoenet_xmit() to push packet to tx queue. So they
should also use dev_hold() to increase the refcnt of skb->dev. On the
other hand, moving dev_put() to tx() causes that the refcnt of
skb->dev be reduced to a negative value, because corresponding
dev_hold() are not called in revalidate(), aoecmd_ata_rw(), resend(),
probe(), and aoecmd_cfg_rsp(). This patch fixed this issue.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
