CVE-2023-4206 - High Severity Vulnerability
Apache Software Foundation (ASF)
Library home page: https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.0/?wsslib=linux
Found in HEAD commit: 22324ae9738f0a1eeb173ff05137c8317c350189
Found in base branch: master
A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_route component can be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation. When route4_change() is called on an existing filter, the whole tcf_result struct is always copied into the new instance of the filter. This causes a problem when updating a filter bound to a class, as tcf_unbind_filter() is always called on the old instance in the success path, decreasing filter_cnt of the still referenced class and allowing it to be deleted, leading to a use-after-free. We recommend upgrading past commit b80b829e9e2c1b3f7aae34855e04d8f6ecaf13c8.
