kernel: fget: check that the fd still exists after getting a ref to it

A read-after-free memory flaw was found in the Linux kernel's garbage collection for Unix domain socket file handlers in the way users call close and fget simultaneously and can potentially trigger a race condition. This flaw allows a local user to crash the system or escalate their privileges on...

kernel: Use After Free in unix_gc() which could result in a local privilege escalation

A vulnerability was found in unixdgramrecvmsg in net/unix/afunix.c in the Linux kernel's garbage collection for Unix domain socket file handlers. In this flaw, a missing cleanup may lead to a use-after-free due to a race problem. This flaw allows a local user to crash the system or escalate their...
