CVE-2023-53853

CVE-2023-53853 is a Linux kernel vulnerability in the netlink path where reads of cb_running were performed locklessly in netlink_recvmsg() and netlink_native_seq_show(), causing a data race with __netlink_dump_start() and netlink_dump_start. The fix, as documented in multiple advisories, adds pr...
