In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: inetrecverror is called without holding the socket lock. The IPv6 socket could mutate to an IPv4 socket due to the IPV6ADDRFORM socket option, potentially triggering a KCSAN warning...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.10

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mptcp: The issue related to “slab-use-after-free” in inetlookupestablished has been fixed. The lookups in the ehash table are performed without locking, and they rely on SLABTYPESAFEBYRCU to ensure the stability of socket memory...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.10, Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: ipv6: Ensure that we call ipv6mcdown at most once. There are two reasons why addrconfnotify is called with NETDEVDOWN: Either the network device is actually going down, or IPv6 was disabled on the interface. If either of the...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipvti: A potential issue related to slab-use-after-free has been fixed in decodesession6. When the ipvti device is set as a qdisc of the sfb type, the cb field of the sent skb may be modified during enqueueing. This can lead to a...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.10

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerabilities have been resolved: ipv6: A retry logic was added in net6rtnotify. inet6rtnotify can only be called under RCU protection. This means that the route may be changed concurrently, and rt6fillnode might return -EMSGSIZE. The skb should be resized whe...
