CVE-2025-40158

CVE-2025-40158 concerns the Linux kernel IPv6 stack. The issue arises from improper RCU usage in ip6_output(), which attempted to use dst_dev_rcu() and, per the advisory, allows a potential UAF if the RCU handling is not correct. The description specifies that the fix is to use RCU in ip6_output(...
