kernel: null-ptr-deref vulnerabilities in sl_tx_timeout in drivers/net/slip

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A NULL pointer dereference may occur while a slip driver is in progress to detach in sltxtimeout in drivers/net/slip/slip.c. This issue could allow an attacker to crash the system or leak internal kernel information...

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A NULL pointer dereference may occur while a slip driver is in progress to detach in sltxtimeout in drivers/net/slip/slip.c. This issue could allow an attacker to crash the system or leak internal kernel information...

The vulnerability of the sl_tx_timeout() function in the drivers/net/slip.c module of the SLIP driver for the Linux operating system allows a hacker to cause a service failure.

The vulnerability of the sltxtimeout function in the drivers/net/slip.c module of the SLIP driver for the Linux operating system is related to the assignment of a null pointer. Exploiting this vulnerability could allow an attacker to cause a service failure...
