kernel: use after free in dccp protocol

A use-after-free flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's Datagram Congestion Control Protocol DCCP implementation freed SKB socket buffer resources for a DCCPPKTREQUEST packet when the IPV6RECVPKTINFO option is set on the socket. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to alter the...

It was discovered that a use-after-free vulnerability existed in the block device layer of the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service system crash or possibly gain administrative privileges. CVE-2016-7910 Dmitry Vyukov discovered a use-after-free vulnerability ...

DEBIAN-CVE-2017-6074

The dccprcvstateprocess function in net/dccp/input.c in the Linux kernel through 4.9.11 mishandles DCCPPKTREQUEST packet data structures in the LISTEN state, which allows local users to obtain root privileges or cause a denial of service double free via an application that makes an IPV6RECVPKTINF...

kernel: CXGB3: Logic bug in return code handling prematurely frees key structures causing Use after free or kernel panic.

A use-after-free flaw was found in the CXGB3 kernel driver when the network was considered to be congested. The kernel incorrectly misinterpreted the congestion as an error condition and incorrectly freed or cleaned up the socket buffer skb. When the device then sent the skb's queued data, these...
