Descriptions

A use-after-free in the mac80211 stack when parsing a multi-BSSID element in the Linux kernel 5.2 through 5.19.x before 5.19.16 could be used by attackers (able to inject WLAN frames) to crash the kernel and potentially execute code.

Un uso de memoria previamente liberada en la pila mac80211 cuando ea analizado un elemento multi-BSSID en el kernel de Linux versiones 5.2 hasta 5.19.14, podría ser usado por atacantes (capaces de inyectar tramas WLAN) para bloquear el kernel y potencialmente ejecutar código

Jann Horn discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly track memory allocations for anonymous VMA mappings in some situations, leading to potential data structure reuse. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that a race condition existed in the memory address space accounting implementation in the Linux kernel, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.
