kernel: tls: race between async notify and socket close

A race condition vulnerability was found in the tls subsystem of the Linux kernel. The submitting thread that calls recvmsg/sendmsg may exit as soon as the async crypto handler calls complete; any code past that point risks touching already freed data. This could lead to a use-after-free issue an...

USN-6950-2 linux-aws-5.15, linux-gkeop-5.15, linux-ibm, linux-ibm-5.15, linux-raspi vulnerabilities

kernel: TIPC message reassembly use-after-free remote code execution vulnerability

A use-after-free UAF flaw exists in the Linux Kernel within the reassembly of fragmented TIPC messages, specifically in the tipcbufappend function. The issue results due to a lack of checks in the error handling cleanup and can trigger a UAF on "struct skbuff", which may lead to remote code...
