kernel: net_sched: hfsc: Address reentrant enqueue adding class to eltree twice

A use-after-free UAF vulnerability, which also presents a potential infinite loop condition, has been resolved in the Linux kernel. This flaw affects the HFSC Hierarchical Fair Service Curve queuing discipline when it is used in conjunction with NETEM Network Emulation. A malicious user could...

kernel: sch_hfsc: make hfsc_qlen_notify() idempotent

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: schhfsc: make hfscqlennotify idempotent hfscqlennotify is not idempotent either and not friendly to its callers, like fqcodeldequeue. Let's make it idempotent to ease qdisctreereducebacklog callers' life: 1. updatevf decreases...

kernel: net/sched: Always pass notifications when child class becomes empty

A use-after-free UAF vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's net/sched subsystem, specifically in the Credit-Based Shaper CBS qdisc implementation schcbs. The vulnerability occurs because the CBS qdisc's reset function qdiscresetqueue only resets its internal queue but fails to reset its...
