Descriptions

A use-after-free flaw was found in io_uring/filetable.c in io_install_fixed_file in the io_uring subcomponent in the Linux Kernel during call cleanup. This flaw may lead to a denial of service.

Se encontró una falla de use-after-free en io_uring/filetable.c en io_install_fixed_file en el subcomponente io_uring en el kernel de Linux durante la limpieza de llamadas. Este defecto puede dar lugar a una denegación de servicio.

It was discovered that the Upper Level Protocol subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle sockets entering the LISTEN state in certain protocols, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that the NFSD implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle some RPC messages, leading to a buffer overflow. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.
