Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipv6: mcast: remove one synchronize_net() barrier in ipv6_mc_down() As discussed in the past (commit 2d3916f31891 ("ipv6: fix skb drops
in igmp6_event_query() and igmp6_event_report()")) I think the
synchronize_net() call in ipv6_mc_down() is not needed. Under load, synchronize_net() can last between 200 usec and 5 ms. KASAN seems to agree as well.

En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: ipv6: mcast: elimina una barrera de sincronización_net() en ipv6_mc_down() Como se discutió en el pasado (commit 2d3916f31891 ("ipv6: corrige caídas de skb en igmp6_event_query() e igmp6_event_report()" )) Creo que la llamada sincronizar_net() en ipv6_mc_down() no es necesaria. Bajo carga, sincronizar_net() puede durar entre 200 usos y 5 ms. KASAN parece estar de acuerdo también.

Ziming Zhang discovered that the DRM driver for VMware Virtual GPU did not properly handle certain error conditions, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. A local attacker could possibly trigger this vulnerability to cause a denial of service. Zheng Wang discovered that the Broadcom FullMAC WLAN driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition during device removal, leading to a use- after-free vulnerability. A physically proximate attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service.
