EUVD-2025-124925

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipv6: use RCU in ip6output Use RCU in ip6output in order to use dstdevrcu to prevent possible UAF. We can remove rcureadlock/rcureadunlock pairs from ip6finishoutput2...

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(...
