A flaw was found in the “Routing decision” classifier in the Linux kernel’s
Traffic Control networking subsystem in the way it handled changing of
classification filters, leading to a use-after-free condition. This flaw
allows unprivileged local users to escalate their privileges on the system.
The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality,
integrity, as well as system availability.
